Ingredients

5 oz vanilla coconut yogurt
2 tsp maple syrup
1 ¼ cup almond milk
2 tbsp chia seeds
1 scoop dairy free protein powder I use the chocolate flavor

Instructions

Add the yogurt, maple syrup, almond milk, chia seeds and protein powder to the pint container of the ninja creami. Use an immersion blender to blend until the protein powder is fully incorporated. Alternatively, you can also blend it in a blender.
Add the lid and transfer to the fridge for an hour to allow the chia seeds to begin to set. Transfer to the freezer and freeze for 24 hours.
Remove from the freezer and run the pint under hot water for 10-20 seconds to remove any frost. Place the frozen cup inside the outer bowl and lock the lid on top. Spin on the lite ice cream setting once.
Remove the lid and make a well in the center of the creami. Add a splash of almond and spin again on the respin setting. You'll spin 2-3 times total, adding a splash of almond milk as needed until the ice cream is creamy to your liking!
Serve by scooping into a bowl, or use the swirl function if desired!

Notes

I don't recommend blending the protein powder into the base of the mixture with a handheld milk frother, as the chia seeds will get stuck. You'll want to use an immersion blender or a regular blender to ensure the protein powder is well blended.
