Ingredients
-
240ml high-protein milk (Arla Protein works well), or any semi-skimmed milk. For a richer, higher-calorie version, swap some for whole milk or a splash of single cream.
-
Half a banana, for natural sweetness and a smoother set.
-
1 to 2 scoops of Whey Elite: Triple Chocolate for the richest result
-
2 tablespoons (around 12g) of unsweetened cocoa powder.
-
Granulated sweetener to taste (optional), such as erythritol or a stevia blend.
-
Half a teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional).
-
A handful of dark chocolate chips to mix in (optional). Use sugar-free chocolate chips if you want to keep it leaner.
Method
-
Add everything except the chocolate chips to a blender or shaker and blend until smooth with no lumps.
-
Pour into your Creami tub, keeping below the max fill line.
-
Freeze flat and level for 24 hours.
-
Spin on the Lite Ice Cream or Protein setting.
-
If it comes out crumbly or a little powdery, add a splash of milk and use Re-spin until smooth and creamy. This step is the secret to the right texture.
-
Poke a hole in the middle, drop in your chocolate chips, and run the Mix-in setting. Scoop and enjoy.
Pro tips
-
The re-spin is everything. A crumbly first spin is normal, and a splash of milk followed by another spin turns it properly creamy.
-
Let the tub sit out for a couple of minutes before spinning, so the machine can work through it more easily.
-
Do not fill past the max line, or it will not spin properly.
-
Freeze on a level shelf for an even set.
-
Triple Chocolate Whey Elite gives the richest flavour, but Caramel Biscuit and Salted Caramel would slap too.
Macros
A full tub is high in protein and far lower in sugar than most shop-bought ice cream, so your sweet tooth and your macros both win. Macros vary depending on milk and amount of Whey Protein used.
