Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup 2% Fairlife Milk
  • 1 scoop Whey Protein Isolate
  • 5.3 oz Low Carb lemon yogurt I used Too Good & Co
  • 2 packets stevia or sweetener of choice
  • ¼ teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a blender. Blend until smooth.
  • Next, transfer the mixture into the Ninja Creami pint and place the lid on.
  • Transfer the pint to the freezer and freeze for at least 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 it into place.
  • Run the Ninja Creami on the lite ice cream function. You will need to respin twice for the best texture.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

I did not use lemon juice because I was unsure if it would curdle the yogurt and milk.
If you want a more powerful lemon flavor, try adding in 1 teaspoon of lemon pudding mix.
You can substitute the stevia packets for allulose or monk fruit or even maple syrup if you’re not trying to watch your calorie or carb intake.
