I am enjoying banana peach nice cream as I type. So delicious. I can’t wait to try your chocolate and strawberry as the spring and summer progress here in NC. Thank you Jill.
Greetings Jill, could I make this delicious ice cream in my Vitamix? I love the posts that you send to me via email. Thank You!
You can blend it but without the Creami machine it will just freeze solid and be more like a frozen popsicle. The machine grinds down the frozen block into this crazy creamy texture.
Hi Jill. I just watched your icecream video and would like to buy the Creami. There are 2 models, 299 MC or 301 MC. Which one would you recommend? Also did you buy the extra containers with the 4 coloured tops and do they work on the Ninja.
I think the difference is just in features, I would guess either is fine. There is a link for the machine and contains in the recipe Equipment section.
Hello! Do you have a substitution idea for the nuts? We have a nut allergy so substitution suggestions are always necessary for us. Love your recipes!
Unsalted, hulled sunflower seeds can work as a nut replacement.
I would try a tablespoon or 2 of rolled oats.
Hi Jill, I am wondering if I can make the ice cream in my Vitamix instead of the Creami Machine. The ice cream looks luscious. Can’t wait to try it.
Thank You,
Jeanette

Made the chocolate recipe and it was delicious. I will try the other sometime soon.
Is the ninja creami difficult to clean up after making the ice cream?
It is super quick and easy to clean.
How about some Cherry Garcia! That would be awesome!
Hi Jill, do you think I could use a cuisinart ice cream machine for this? Thanks so much.
I think so but I haven’t tried it.
Let me suffice to say that both of these recipes are HOME RUNS! We doubled up the recipes. We did the chocolate one first. So good! We didn’t have strawberries, so we used thawed dark cherries in it’s place and that was great! Then, did the strawberry one and it was also excellent. Ordered your new cookbook and can’t wait to get it!
I tried both the strawberry and the chocolate. Both were great, but the chocolate was amazing! It had the “mouth feel” of a rich, chocolate ice cream. I am going to go prepare two more chocolate containers for the next two nights! Thanks, Jill!
Oh my! I think that you’ve convinced me to invest in a Ninja Creami. I’ve always been rather frustrated with making “nice cream” in my VitaMix.
Do you plan on creating more recipes with the Ninja Creami? I’d love to have a couple of recipes using white beans as a base or partial base for a vanilla ice cream.
Also, I just contacted the publisher to order your second cookbook.
Thanks for all your hard work.
These two ice creams were amazing – I’ve tried a few others and they just don’t compare to these – the chocolate in particular is ‘delish’ – now I just need a good creamy vanilla bean recipe without banana – calling Jill!!
Once turned into ice cream, how long will it keep in the freezer? Or does it crystalize if re-frozen?
I would imagine it would keep for about a month. I haven’t tried keeping it for that long ( it never makes it more than a couple days in our freezer because we gobble it up =) ). It does crystalize a bit in the freezer but once you spin it in the machine it turns out creamy again.
I have the cuisinart ice cream maker, I suspect I can just do the mixing fairly similar to the creamy?
I believe so but I haven’t tried it
Made this yesterday – so good! I have a Cuisinart – just churned it about 15 minutes – perfect! Except I should have 3x the recipe – I need more!
ok allergic to bananas , i know sad , but any ideas what i can substitute bananas for
Hmmmm, I think it would work using cooked white sweet potato or raw zucchini
In cant eat bananas , what is an alternative/
white sweet potato
