I love the Ninja Creami! You can also take any fruit, banana, flavorings or what ever into the bullet, blend it up, pour into the creami pint and freeze. Then the Ninja Creami works it’s magic. Add dates and vanilla bean powder for vanilla ice cream, or even PB2 powder for peanut butter ice cream. The sky is the limit! Half strawberries and half banana with a date and a little vanilla and you get the best strawberry ice cream!
The Nina Creami is on sale at BB&B and you get an additional 20% discount, if you apply a coupon. I bought one today and can’t wait to try the pineapple sorbet…brilliant!
Wow! I can't believe how creamy it looks!! I use my vitamix w/frozen banana but it is not smooth-there are always chunks! Thanks for the tutorial-it looks so easy!
I have to add an updated comment. I ordered the ninja creami and extra containers. I put mandarin oranges n one, pineapple n another, tropical fruit blend (pineapple, papaya, mango) n the 3rd and a banana with the leftovers from the first 3 n the last one. 🤤 OH...MY....GOSH!!!! It's hard to choose my favorite. Yes. We tried them ALL tonight! 😂 I'd say the tropical. My sons went CUHHHRAZY over these flavors. They r requesting apples with apple juice for an apple cider slushy (which undoubtedly WILL b my favorite!) I can't wait for my daughter to get off work and try the barely tablespoon amounts I was able to save for her. Thank u Chef AJ for showing us this awesome piece of equipment that allows us to make awesome desserts! I can't wait to make other flavors!! 😍😍💖💖
Your editor didn't catch your mistake at the beginning of this video when u said u got your first juicer at 27...35 years ago. I think u meant to say was 5 years ago?? Pretty sure u should have a talk with that person. 😁 Now onto serious matters. I think u have just changed my WHOLE LIFE, my WHOLE WORLD, quite possibly my children's lives and the lives of my coworkers with the info from this video!! SECRET ALERT: I make E...VER...Y...ONE taste whatever vegan deliciousness I discover and make. As soon as I'm done sending this comment I'm getting on your link and having the creami sent as fast as I possibly get it shipped to me. I've said it before I absolutely L💖💖💖💖VE your videos where it's my one on one time with my Chef AJ!! LOVE U!! 💖💖 Love the adorable shirts u always wear!! 😍😍 Thank u for informing and inspiring us!!
Wow! It is so creamy! I try to avoid adding more gadgets to my kitchen (due to space) but I may need to give in with this one! I look forward to seeing additional dairy free sugar free recipes in the Ninja Creami.
...also a little sqeeze of fresh lemon or lime just brightens it, makes it dance! if gets too soft while processing, just pop it in the freezer for a few, then serve it up! enjoy
I haven't tried pineapple but I make a sorbet with frozen mango chunks. I do use a little liquid to hp the process. I use my stainless steel carafe. I pour a bit of non dairy milk in just to cover the blades. Then I put in a bunch of the mango. & sometimes a date too. I crank it to 10 & then plunge it continually for a min. Then I check & see if it needs another min. Made it tonight took about 2 1/2 mins. & came out super creamy.
tnx to u my dear Chef, the health & body i wanted. I won't bore u with my whole story, again, waiting to be interviewed on ur channel, so so nervous. ANYWAY, i FINALLY ordered the Ninja Creami Deluxe , supposed to arrive Monday , can hardly wait. tfs xo
This video gave me a great idea. I already own a yonanas machine. I typically use frozen bananas or mix of bananas and frozen berries. When I go shopping soon I am going to buy some frozen pineapple and put it through the yonanas. Bet it will be delicious. Thanks for the idea!
And you can freeze other wfpb ice cream recipes in ice cube trays and use it in your Yonana too. Just let them sit out for a few minutes before you process them!
After trying the frozen pineapple in the yonanas machine, ( I just did a small taste and then stopped) I decided that the yonanas machine is best used with a base of bananas that you can mix with other fruits. The texture of the pineapple alone was icy and not creamy. Although I may have not let the. frozen pineapple thaw enough before trying it.
I went and bought one today and was so excited - until I read in the booklet that came with it "Use fruit in juice, light syrup, or heavy syrup to adjust the sweetness of your sorbet. Using canned fruit with no added sugar (fruit in water) may damage the unit." (page 17). I was so looking forward to making the Vegan Dole Whip, but it looks like if I do, I run the risk of damaging the machine.
I think what the manual is saying is that this machine is not built for tunneling through a block of ice. However, if you add A tiny bit of sugar to your water. It makes it easier to tunnel through. Or milk, Or protein shake? Or some other wet ingredient that is not just an inch and a half of solid water.
Hi Chef AJ. Just got mine delivered. First thing I noticed is that it says if you use canned fruit in just juice with no sugar you can damage the machine? This doesn't make sense--you did use pineapple in nothing but juice, right? No sugar syrup? Just want to make sure I don't ruin the machine...and like you, I don't eat sugar....
Chef, I see in The instructions they say if you use fruit that’s packed in water, you could ruin the unit? They recommend packed in juice or syrup. Just clarifying…you use the water one? Thx.
Hello Chef AJ. I’m not a huge fan of pineapple so do you think that I could use canned peaches or even fruit cocktail that’s made without sugar, just the juice? Also, do you travel to Arizona to do any presentations? Thanks so much for your site.
I tried to use your discount code but was told because I live in England UK that I couldn't use it. Thanks anyway Chef Aj for everything you do. Tony x
Thanks so much this Ninja Cremi is just what I've been looking for. When I went to check out they offered a 30% off promo code fyi for July BFJULY30 I got it with tax for $174.88. Can't wait to get mine and try this. Chef AJ you mentioned that a vita mix could also be used, which I have. but I was told that I can't blend fruit because it breaks down the fiber from the fruit and then it's considered processed which I can not have bring 100% compliant on Dr Essys reverse Heart disease plan. Thanks so much for the great tip!✌️
It's best to not use the ones packed in water, because you can't process an ice block. You can get pineapple in juice which works fine as it. If you don't want the juice, you can get the water-packed kind, drain, and fill the container to the max fill line with your favorite non-dairy milk, freeze for 24 hours, let it sit our for 5 - 10 minutes, and process using the sorbet setting.
@@KathyHesterVeganRecipes I got mine yesterday and I'm so excited to try it using fresh pineapple. Last night I chopped us a whole fresh pineapple into bits and pressed it into one of the containers and froze it. Was I supposed to add add oat milk?
@@lorielizabeth5328 If the spaces between the chunks are filled with juice you are fine. If it froze as chunks with space between them, do not spin it. It needs a solid mass!
@@KathyHesterVeganRecipes first try with the oat milk mixed with the crushed pineapple .. the bottom was perfectly creamier than the rest. So I took out the yummilicious creami part and put the rest into a bowl and mixed it thoroughly with more oat milk and refroze it. I also found if I use a piece of parchment paper to flatten the mixture down before I freeze it, it prevents the Lumps. I'll. Freeze it again for 24 hours and mix it again tomorrow . I think I perfected it this way now by adding more oat milk to the mix.
When this is made with ninja creami is it compliant with Dr Esselstyns diet ? Ie if it acts like a smoothie / blender and blends to liquid so that it detaches the sugar from the fiber , that wouldn’t be compliant - or does this just grind the fruits like a yonana
I blend up any combo of non frozen fruit I want in a nutribullet and then pour into the Ninja Creamy pints and freeze. Then once frozen let the ninja do it’s thing. I make the most delicious flavors of banana ice cream ever! Best machine I have bought in a long time!
The difference between the one with 5 buttons and the one with 7 buttons s you don't get a smoothie bowl or gelato setting, but everything else is the same. You don't need those buttons because you can spin smoothie bowls on light ice cream or sorbet. I hope this helps!
Ordered one. Was going to use your code but their company offered a 30% off code online BFJULY30 Can’t wait for it to arrive. I had DoleWhip last January. Regretted going off plan for that…

If you have a Costco membership it's $189 online right now with $40 off so $149!
Love it! I just bought my Ninja Creamie 3 days ago. I am making banana nice cream tonight. I’m definitely freezing some pineapple for tomorrow 🍍
Wow! I can't believe how creamy it looks!! I use my vitamix w/frozen banana but it is not smooth-there are always chunks! Thanks for the tutorial-it looks so easy!
I'm type2 diabetic and this looks like a very nice treat indeed for those snack times for myself also. Thank you for review.
Just made this last night. What a great recipe! Thank you for all you do.
Unsweetened applesauce and cinnamon is also DELICIOUS!
Really? ❤️
@@barbaralevine9048 I know it sounds too good to be true but it's amazing. If it's crumbly at all I add a dash of maple syrup and respin. YUM.

Sounds fantastic!
Hi, did you use fresh fruit or canned. Can you use fresh apple and perhaps blend it in a blender first?
It often freezes with a hump raised in the middle but it is fine to go ahead and spin. I do it all the time. ❤️
FYI - A small percentage of people have reported the blade popping off while trying to spin over a hump on top. It can damage the machine.

Freeze the blended date shake base and make date shake nice-cream or smoothie bowl...that would be delicious.
With it being over 100 degrees here, that looks to die for!
Wow! It is so creamy! I try to avoid adding more gadgets to my kitchen (due to space) but I may need to give in with this one! I look forward to seeing additional dairy free sugar free recipes in the Ninja Creami.
i've been doing this for years with fresh pineapple (frozen) and a bit of frozen banana in a mini food processor, and I've never been to disneyland.
How creamy do you get it to be and how much liquid do you add?
@@carinecampier it turns out like soft serve! no liquid!
...also a little sqeeze of fresh lemon or lime just brightens it, makes it dance! if gets too soft while processing, just pop it in the freezer for a few, then serve it up! enjoy
Looks great! I need to find a way to make this in the Vitamix. I don't want another appliance.
I haven't tried pineapple but I make a sorbet with frozen mango chunks. I do use a little liquid to hp the process. I use my stainless steel carafe. I pour a bit of non dairy milk in just to cover the blades. Then I put in a bunch of the mango. & sometimes a date too. I crank it to 10 & then plunge it continually for a min. Then I check & see if it needs another min. Made it tonight took about 2 1/2 mins. & came out super creamy.
You can definitely make this in your VitaMix but it won't have the same creamy texture you get with the Ninja.

This is great!! Making it right now!
So simple and delicious!

I chopped up a fresh pineapple to use in my cremi should I add oat milk ?
I do not use any canned food (BPA and the new version of BPA) so can I use Fresh pineapple for this?
What can I add to this for sweetness? Pineapple alone is not sweet enough to be an ice cream. I tried Splenda, but it changed the consistency.
Sorry, I find it sweet enough with just pineapple.
I don’t like buying canned fruits. Is the liquid used? Trying to figure out how I could do with fresh pineapple?
I just blended it with little water before pouring into the Ninja. Worked fine.
No peace without vegan.
My sorbet is coming out half crumbly. Anyone know what I’m doing wrong?
Try pushing respin
🧡👍🏼
How big is this machine?
Check on their website for exact measurements
I see different models…does it matter?
I didn’t know there were different models so I don’t think so
