Ingredients
Ice Cream Base:
- 1½ cups half-and-half
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- ½ cup condensed milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon monk fruit sweetener
Mix-ins:
- 1 large apple (peeled, cored, diced)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
- Dash of cinnamon
- Graham crackers (crumbled)
Instructions
In a blender, combine half-and-half, cottage cheese, condensed milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, sea salt, and monk fruit sweetener. Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour into a Ninja Creami pint container, seal tightly, and freeze for at least 24 hours.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter and add diced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the apples are tender but not mushy. Let cool completely before storing in the fridge.
Once the base is frozen solid (after 24 hours), place the pint in your Ninja Creami machine and use the “Ice Cream” setting. If the texture is crumbly after spinning, add a splash of milk and re-spin until smooth.
Create a small well in the center of your ice cream and add the sautéed apples and crumbled graham crackers. Use the “Mix-in” setting to evenly incorporate them into the ice cream.
Scoop into bowls or cones and garnish with extra graham cracker crumbs or caramel sauce for an extra treat.
Notes
Serving Suggestions:
Serve alongside warm apple pie for an indulgent à la mode dessert or enjoy it on its own as a flavorful fall treat.
Tips & Tricks:
- Let the frozen base sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes before spinning for smoother results.
- Avoid overcooking apples; they should remain slightly firm for texture contrast.
Storage & Reheating:
Store leftover ice cream in its pint container with an airtight lid in the freezer for up to one week. Allow it to sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving or re-spin in your Ninja Creami if needed.
