Equipment

Ingredients

  • cup coconut milk I used canned coconut milk. Make sure that you shake it up well before opening and measuring.
  • 1 ⅓ cup water
  • 1 tablespoon collagen peptides
  • 1 tablespoon monk fruit or your favorite sweetener
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • cup unsweetened shredded coconut I used unsweetened coconut as the mix in. When I do this next time I'm going to use desiccated coconut instead.

Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients to the pint except for the shredded coconut. Stir well with a fork. Alternatively, you can add everything to a blender or mason jar and shake/blend to make sure everything is mixed well.
  • Next place the lid on the pint and transfer to the freezer. Freeze for 24 hours.
  • After 24 hours, remove the lid and place the pint into the pint holder. Place the lid with the blade on top and lock into place.
  • Run the Ninja Creami on the lite ice cream function. You will need to re-spin three times and adding a tablespoon of liquid each time for the best texture.
  • Next, create a hole in the ice cream and place the coconut shreds in it and then select the “mix-in” function. After it’s processed your coconut ice cream is ready to be enjoyed!
  • Optionally, top with additional shredded coconut.
