For froyo, take yogurt and freeze it. You can add fresh fruit if you wish. Once ready for the Creami I put a tad bit of milk on top and hit the button.
@@southernsoul152 I'm not sure. Someone was using it everyday or almost every day. I made some homemade frozen custard again and on the last pint it started making a different noise. Then, it just stopped and the lights were all blinking. The was down in it and metal shavings were everywhere in it. The blade and the metal shift coming out of the machine looked burnt up. It also had a burning smell. I still love it and they sent me a new one after I sent them mine.
Few questions, if you know:: Do you think 2% milk, honey, and vanilla extract would work? And do you think making instant pudding and freezing it would work? Also, I watched one person pour canned fruit, with the juice, in there and freeze it, and she said it came out well, but didn't include a close up. Have you tried fruit or fruit juice, and if so, how did it come out? Thanks. Thanks.
Are you talking about just milk, honey, and vanilla? I'm not sure, but you could try it. I think my daughter tried milk with some type of flavoring and she said it just tasted like ice milk. I've done instant pudding and love love love it! I've done instant pudding a few ways. I have done the big box with 2 cups of milk in one pint. Delicious but way too much for one pint, it was so full. I've done 1 box of pudding with 3 cups of milk, that seems to work much better! That makes 2 pints. I've also done a vanilla icecream base then add 1 to 2 tablespoons of dry pudding mix. That works great as well. When I do the 1 or 2 tablespoons I've done the regular pudding and the sugar free one and both taste great to me. I haven't tried the whole box of 0 sugar pudding with 3 cups of milk for 2 pints yet. The pudding mix is one of my favorites because of all of the yummy pudding flavors you can buy. I've also done 1 or 2 tablespoons of dry pudding as a mix in and not in the base but it was a little gritty. I think the only fruit I've tried so far was the can of fried apples. So, I know can fruit should work. One bite of that is what sold my husband on the creami. He fell in love. If you don't like the texture just add a tiny bit milk. You could probably do half and half or heavy whipping cream as well. I've currently got homemade custard mixed up in the freezer. It turned out awesome the first time, so hopefully it does this time as well. I'll see if I can remember to do a video when I mix it in the creami. I use this machine so much.
I make mine with a banana, strawberries or a little strawberry jam for strawberry banana flavor, a little heavy cream - it comes out incredibly smooth and just like a frogurt. I process on smoothie bowl.
@@CookWithMae. Awesome - I also made a pumpkin pie flavored one for my wife. Same basic formula - only I added vanilla and some sugar to replace the jam. It was quite good too. Have fun
@@CookWithMae. I used canned pumpkin, added pumpkin pie spice and sugar or maple syrup, added plain yogurt and then added cream. Adjusted the sugar and the spices until it is just a little stronger than I thought I'd like (usually splices seem weaker to me when cold). Mixed it all good in a bowl and filled my Creami container and used smoothie bowl the next morning. We liked it - I will play with the ratios a little more - but with granola and pecans it was very delicious.
@@lovetocook9078 that sounds good! I'll have to try that one day. I wonder if it can be done without yogurt or not. I'll have to play around with it when I try it.
I love yoghurt and that's on my list to make first. My Ninja Creami arrives next week. Cannot wait. 5 pints. 20 dollars off is excellent. I love a good deal. Happy Ice Cream Making!
I love yogurt too. You may want to add a little sugar or sugar substitute if you are addicted to sugar like me haha. There are so many possibilities. I love coming up with new things to try.
@@CookWithMae. Hubby is into the sugar but I am not as much into it. I'm allergic to dairy so be doing a no-dairy yoghurt and then also a homemade yoghurt. That's how I am too, I love to come up with new things. It's just so fun to play!
I’d put on ear protection when in the same room with that thing!!! Holy moly!! I thought that a lawn mower destroys your hearing!!! This sounds like next level and mute my ipad when listening…I still can’t wait to get mine from QVC and try keto recipes I have in my head!!
How did you like the ice cream made with pudding mix? Did you use instant or non instant pudding mix? I tried it using 1/2 of a 4 serving box of instant, and the ice cream turned out gummy and gross. I did whisk it in the milk first. Not sure what went wrong.
We love the pudding mix. I use instant pudding. How much milk did you use? I do it a few different ways and each way is great. I haven't had any gummy ones yet. I've taken vanilla soft serve mix and made a vanilla icecream base then added a little pudding mix. I've also used a little pudding mix as a mix in. I tried 2 cups of milk with a box of pudding but that was too full in my opinion. So, I also take the box of pudding and mix it like the box says and put it in 2 pints. So far nothing has been gummy. All were thick, creamy, and delicious. What type of milk do you use? I use whole milk with my pudding. I've used 2 percent with soft serve mix and my son said it wasn't as good, so I haven't tried it with pudding yet.
@@CookWithMae. yes I have! The first think I made came out fantastic. Today I tried honey lavender frozen yogurt. That one could use some adjustments!! But overall I’m loving it! Thank you!
Thank you!
Thanks. This is first I have heard you could make froyo! I just ordered my Creami so learning all I can!
I had to send mine in for replacement. My new one should be here today. It has been no fun without it.
@@CookWithMae. may I ask what happened to it? So I can prevent any damage…

@@CookWithMae. That’s terrible! Especially when it’s not a cheap machine. Glad they sorted it out for you and thank you for the reply 🌻

Great idea to add a little milk. I've only made ice cream a few times and it came out powdery. I'm trying your concept.
If milk doesn't help you leave it on the counter for 20 to 30 minutes before putting in the creami.
Thank you! Great tips 👌

You're going to love it.
I can't wait to learn keto recipes. Those are the only type I should be making.
Coming over from the Happy Whisk. She sent me to watch your Ninja Creami video! Thank you!
Thank you
Hey Pineapple! Great to see you here. How helpful is this video? And I tell you this machine kicks butt!
@@CookWithMae. You really were quite helpful to me. Much, much thanks!
@@TheHappyWhisk thank you, and you're very welcome.
@@CookWithMae. 🍦
That is pretty cool. I would to try to use one of these things
I really love mine. The possibilities are endless. You can create the flavors you want.

How much yogurt did you put in thr pint
Did you use Greek yogurt or regular yogurt? How much did you use?
I used regular yogurt. I used 2 of the Aldi yogurt cups.
Just bought my creami today at target. Excited to get some groceries tomorrow 😃
Have you used it yet? How do you like it? If something doesn't turn out, try another idea.
@@CookWithMae. yes I have! The first think I made came out fantastic. Today I tried honey lavender frozen yogurt. That one could use some adjustments!! But overall I’m loving it! Thank you!
@@LucianJanne That's so cool. Congrats on the new toy. Mine should be here next week. Cannot wait!
Thank you
What type of yogurt did you use?
I used some cheap yogurt from Aldi. After this video I also tried Activia I believe. Both were good. I've got some Trix yogurt I'll be trying next.
Can you store this and refreeze in a container?
Yes, some do that.
Yogurt
I wish it wasn't so loud.
It is a bit loud but the delicious treats are worth dealing with the sound.
