Absolutely fantastic video. However, I would highly suggest trying to add salt to your ice creams. It is an absolute game changer. Thanks again for the amazing video!
a pinch of salt definitely enhances the chocolate flavor
ive noticed some protein powders have an absurd level of sodium in them already, so check your protein powder before doing this as you might not need to. when i made vanilla i added my usual .25-.5g only for it to taste like the sea
Salt in desserts is elite
That is a serious protein powder collection! I have quite a collection, but nothing like that! Thanks for trying all of these for all of us. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks for this great video... my Creami is on it's way. Can't wait!
Yes! A protein recipe channel!!! Thank you!
The video is perfect. Thank you for all your work to inform us :)
Wow! This was soooo informational and helpful!
just got this today and will be trying a few thanks!
Thanks for the info, just trying to get into Protein ice cream this is helpful!
Awesome video! Hoping to try some different powders myself!
Thank you so much for this vid!
Amazing and thanks! My exp for the best PP for Creami is a blend of Casein and Whey Isolate, I think Quest has that.
Omg I love that you did this thank you. I’m a vegan bodybuilder and 7 weeks out from my show and just bought the ninja to get through prep! 😅 appreciate you!❤
That's awesome and I think the Ninja will definitely help with your prep. BTW, I recently found that adding half a can of pears (no sugar) helps a bit with texture with vegan proteins. If you find other things that improve the texture, please let me know!
Also, I can't say I've ever met a vegan bodybuilder, but listened to what I thought was a really interesting podcast with vegan bodybuilder Nimai Delgado. Might interest you: pca.st/episode/263a0c58-5594-4f69-8393-97acc53cc2dc
I appreciate your video as a new creami owner. didn’t buy for the protein drinks but thinking about trying them!
It's awesome if you want to basically turn ice cream into a complete meal. Low fat yoghurt and fruit based ice creams work well to
@@rorynolan2322 thx
It is easier to use unflavored whey isolates and have a number of extracts, especially for storage. Almost all of the whey protein powders contain soy, so not good for most cancer survivors. Also if you have any MTHFR gene polymorphism, they all contain synthetic folic acid that cannot be metabolized and can build toxicity and possibly be carcinogenic. Good point about the vanilla, I scrape bean pods to add to ice creams then make extract with the pod remainders. I prefer guar gum to xanthum gum but I hear tara gum is the best. I sometimes use milk protein isolates as the 80:20 split of whey to casein would be as found in nature. Definitely dark cocoa powder works best and its fiber content makes for a thicker ice cream. Acacia fiber can help with that as well. Thanks for trying and assessing so many protein powders!
Do you have a favorite brand for isolates? Or have you found they're all pretty much the same?
@@LowCalNinja-qf4ye I use Bulk Supplements unflavored whey protein isolate because its only 2 ingredients: whey protein and sunflower lecithin. As a Type 2 diabetic (as well as the other 2 woes cited earlier), there are the fewest carbs in isolates versus concentrates. No, I find some mix better with alternative milks and some are grittier. I liked Isopure's texture the best, for baking as well, if it wasn't for the soy. The flavored ones all contain folic acid rather than methylfolate but they do have some fun flavors don't they. I get fruity cereal extract and toasted marshmallow extract from a company called One-on-One. It's funny, I wish I liked the of flavor of Keto Chow's vitamins and minerals, because they address most of my issues so they really must have done their homework.
A good tip i have found. Using a few dates blened up. Adds extra sweetness give a really nice sticky thicker consistency and add a almost toffee like note. Also means you can dial back a bit on artificial sweateners.
This worked very well in a dairy free ice cream i made with coconut milk replacement and coconut flavoured soy protein. It made a big difference for the creaminess and inhanced the coconut flavour. So if you're dairy free of vegan id recommend just for getting a good creamy tast and consistency when you don't want to be adding fats into your diet. Obviously ised xanthume gum still as well
Thanks! I rarely see soy protein these days and subsequently haven't tried it in the Creami yet. Which brand do you like best for Soy protein.
When you say coconut milk are you using canned or the kind you drink?
I will definitely give dates a try!
@@LowCalNinja-qf4ye the kind you drink. Specifically the alpro barista one
@@LowCalNinja-qf4ye oh sorry forgot to mention iv only tried myprotein brand soy protein. It's a little gritty in a shake but that's totally gone when made into an ice cream. The only reason I use it is for my wife who is dairy free.
Thank you!
The PowerBI dashboard is great. One thing that could be a great addition is including something around price, like price per gram of protein or price per serving
Thank you! Noted.
Awesome video, thanks for putting it together for us! I agree with the 'extract' flavoring. I use mint extract and its pretty harsh. Anything over 1 drop will ruin your pint. Its potent! I'm gonna try some mint 'flavored syrup', I think it'll be a more rounded and smooth flavor.
I'm just finishing up my first 3 containers of PE Science, I'm pretty happy with the 3 flavors I have, Peanut Butter Cookie, Mint Cookie, and Vanilla.
Thanks! If the syrup works better, please report back. I haven't tested all the different extracts, just vanilla. It was so counterintuitive that vanilla extract just made my vanillas worse.
I love me some mint chocolate and have been thinking about getting some mint extract, but never got around to it.
If you do get a mint extract. Make sure you get pure peppermint for a sweet flavour. If it's mint and peppermint it tastes like toothpaste.
Thanks so much🙂
Great collection! I’m still working on my Quest protein powders. I’ve been adding pudding to mine and using less protein, but I’ll try your recipe next time I just need to pick up some cottage cheese. What percentage of fat do you use? Fat free, 1,2 or 4?
I use FF or 1%. I haven't tried the higher percentages, but I'm sure the higher fat the better taste.
Ghost has some killer flavors, but, I'm glad you pointed out it might not be the best for the creami cause thats the brand I was going to start using. I use optimum nutrition (from Costco) for my everyday shakes but I wasn't too impressed with the way the ice cream turned out.
Here’s all you really need to know…
Leave your ice cream out for 10 mins, use 10 grams of powdered pudding mix or use .005 of xanthym gum by weight, and fill to the max line with protein (yogurt, fair life, or powder) and over sweeten and salt…optional items add extracts.
Your protein powder collection is bigger than you are! I wish you abundant storage space. You included so much information in this video, I shall have to watch it several times just to absorb it all. Many thanks for all your research and investment in the process.
Thanks! I just stowed away all the empties in the attic.
@@LowCalNinja-qf4ye I love it. I grew up with basements and attics in the east. Now I live in the west where they are uncommon.
Great video! Do you recommend a certain protein that mixes the best with greek yogurt?
Thanks! I'm not a big Greek yogurt person, but in my experience yogurts seem to mix fine with them all.
Although you spent only a few seconds on the subject, I found it significant that you encourage your viewers to amend rather unsatisfactory powders to be more compliant with your needs. I do that kind of reinforcement all the time. Playing with recipes is very satisfying. If I make a new recipe that turns out less than I hoped for, I usually remelt it and add something to improve it, like sweetener or flavor. Only thing I can't do is remove an ingredient, but if I feel it has potential, I add enough other ingredients to dilute the effect I don't care for. I find most failures are retrievable in some fashion.
I love all those empty hard plastic containers because I buy a lot of dry bulk foods, and they make the perfect storage containers for them. I agree, though, they do take space. After making my own high-protein ice cream for about a year now, I have found an interesting side effect. I also like to bake, but now I find that the ice cream bumps other desserts off my list. The ice cream is definitely the healthier option. Thank you, Ninja.
Thanks, James! Great idea on reusing the containers for things like flour, sugar, and other bulk kitchen items. I will definitely be doing that. 😃
@@LowCalNinja-qf4ye I also transfer protein powder from bags to the hard plastic containers. Quite confusing unless I label carefully. I always think I will remember what I did . . . . . but I don't.
macromike almond protein shake is the best, just tried the banana custart and raspberry cheesecake
maybe the vegan/plant based premade protein shakes would work better? a little more pricey but if it's just for ice-cream then might be worth it
Try nutircost casein protein powder just made it in my creami and it was my first ice cream I made from the ninja and it was absolute ice cream texture and cream and tasted great I only used vanilla flavor but I’m sure chocolate is just as good!😊
I find the nutricost vanilla casein to be a bit bleh on flavor. Did you add anything?
Not at first but if you add some vanilla pudding it makes it that much more
Heavy cream is great to add. It helps smooth & erate & stabilise the mix. Giving a good mouth feel. Musashi sports bars have a high protein. At 30 grams.
My favorite recipe I just discovered is 1 scoop of protein powder, 1 oikos yogurt, 1 box of sugar free pudding and full the rest with almond milk, run on soft ice cream settingi have the deluxe creami so it makes about 24 oz of ice cream which will last 3 or 4 days for me
Thanks for the rec! That must come out really thick between the pudding mix and yogurt, right?
What size oikos yogurt?
Add a scoop of fluff for texture and sweetness. I know, i know, the sugar...
Great video. Thank you! My concoction came our very icy, in general, even after spinning three times. The ingredients were unsweetened almond milk, chocolate whey protein isolate, and powdered stevia. Is there something about these ingredients that produces an icy finished product? I have some xanthum gum and will try it, but just wondering about these ingredients. Thanks!
The gum will help, but in general there isn't many solids in your recipe. Try adding 1/3 cottage cheese as an experiment. I guarantee it'll make it less icy and creamier.
@@LowCalNinja-qf4ye ok. Thank you so much!!!
No problem if I use almond milk plus protein powder, pudding mix and xhanthan gum.
This was incredibly in depth and resourceful! I cry for your wallet 😂😂😂
Thanks! Haha yeah, it's several hundred dollars of powders here! I enjoy testing them all and it's money I would have had to spend on other food anyways...at least that's what I tell myself. 😂
What’s your top 3 brands and top flavor from each brand?
That's tough, Peanut Butter flavors for PEScience, Ryse, and Podium have all been fantastic. So I'm going to exclude those since that might otherwise be 1, 2 & 3.
#1 PEScience - Chocolate Truffle (amzn.to/3UPtGBA)
#2 Ryse - Jet Puffed Marshmallow (amzn.to/3UHDI7x)
#3 Quest - Cinnamon Crunch (amzn.to/4akFgu2)
It's a close between Ryse Marshmallow and Dymatize Vanilla (amzn.to/4bGpI51), but I wanted to keep it at 3.

Do you think you can get good results by combining 200 ml of non-fat milk and 150 ml of water with pudding mix and xantham gum?
And protein powder? Yes, definitely.
No protein powder, you'll be lacking some flavor (and possibly texture) unless you go real heavy on pudding mix.
Can any of these be made in a traditional ice cream maker? I don't really want to invest in a Creami since I have a fairly new ice cream maker
I'm not sure. I haven't really used a lot traditional ice cream maker since I was young. A lot of what I've learned about ice cream has come from a channel called polar ice creamery. Here's a video he did about protein ice cream: th-cam.com/video/KZ7blzvnryY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mvDedTXyZI31ebbD
RAW dark chocolate makes wonderful rich chocolate ninja ice cream
What is the best vanilla base that you have found?
Ryse Marshmellow and Dymantize Vanilla are my favorites at the moment.
@@LowCalNinja-qf4ye Appreciate it, gotta try those out! Currently still going through a case of fairlife corepowers and a pe science tub
@@alexwilliamson338 I thought the PEScience Vanilla was very good too, the others just barely edged them out.
Have you tried non-whey animal based powder? Mainly MRE Lite from Redcon 1?
I have not. Have you and do you recommend it?
I love it as a protein powder and have made protein ice cream in a blender but don't have a creami. It's a great option if whey bothers your stomach.
Machine: im tired boss
We're not done yet! 😆
Have you tried Just Ingredients protein powders?
No, is there a flavor you've had and recommend?
@@LowCalNinja-qf4ye I just used vanilla bean as I. find that flavor very versatile in using.
