High Protein Butter Pecan Ninja Creami

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or desired milk) 
  
• 1/4 cup cottage cheese (can omit for DF but will have to re-spin more than once for creamier texture)
  
• 1 serving vanilla protein powder 
  
• 1 serving collagen powder
  
• 1/2 tsp butter extract 
  
• 1/2 tsp pecan extract, optional but so good (its on my Amazon shop)
  
• 1/2 tsp salt or salted caramel salt from Walmart (bettergoods brand) 
  
• 1 T monk fruit or desired sweetener, optional 
  
• 1-2 oz more milk or half and half during “Re-Spin” 
  
• Mix-ins:
  
  • 1 T small chopped pecans (pecan halves work too)
    

STEPS

• Ninja Creami Instructions:
  

1. 1. Remove your frozen Creami container from the freezer and let it unthaw for 10 minutes or run the sides under some hot water for 1 minute.

   2. Place it into your Creami and hit the “Lite Ice Cream” button or “Ice Cream button” if you plan to use mix ins.

   3. Add in 1-2 Ounces of Milk/Milk Substitute or half and half for extra creamy texture and hit the "Re-Spin" button. You may need to do this twice until desired consistency is achieved or not at all.

   4. If using mix-in toppings, dig a hole in the center and pour in pecans and/or granola. Use the “Mix-In” button to blend in and enjoy!
