We’re back at it with the Ninja Creami machine! This Orange Sherbet is so nostalgic. And it’s exciting to share this healthier version made with simple, clean ingredients, like our FlavCity Vanilla Cream Protein Smoothie, freshly peeled mandarin oranges and half & half. We swear you just might hear the jingle of the ice cream truck when you make this one!
Makes 3 Servings
Directions
- Peel 4 mandarin oranges and add them to a Ninja Creami freezer container.
- In a shaker bottle add the half & half and the FlavCity Protein Smoothie. Shake vigorously until well combined, at least 20 seconds. Then pour the mixture into the container with the mandarin oranges till you reach the ‘Max Fill’ line. Cover the container and freeze it on a level surface for 6 hours or overnight.
- Remove the container from the freezer, take off the lid, place it into the outer container, and cover it securely with the outer container lid. Place it on the Creami machine and lock it into place. Press the ‘sorbet’ button and allow the machine to complete its cycle.
- Remove the container from the machine, open the lid, and check for consistency. If necessary, you can cover it, place it back on the machine, and use the “Respin” feature once. Serve it up and enjoy!
- Leftovers can be stored in the freezer after you level them out in the container. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, repeat steps 3 and 4.
Note: If using FlavCity vegan protein smoothie, use 4 scoops. Grams of protein per serving will vary.
