Q: Does the Ninja Creami Make Soft Serve?

A: Yes, the Ninja Creami makes a version of soft serve. If you let the pint sit out for 10 minutes before you spin it, you will get a delicious, creamy soft serve. I like to spin it a second time with the re-spin cycle to make the ice cream extra creamy.

Q: How Long Does the Ninja Creami take to make Ice Cream?

A: It takes at least 24 hours to have the mixture you create freeze in order to mix in the Ninja Creami machine. However, that being said, I mixed it 12 hours after I made the ice cream, and it still worked, just with a softer-serve texture.

Q: Can I use frozen strawberries in the Ninja Creami?

A: Yes, frozen strawberries work well in this recipe. Thaw them first and drain any extra liquid before mashing. The flavor is just as good as fresh, and it is a great option when fresh strawberries are not in season.

Q: Why is my Ninja Creami ice cream coming out crumbly?

A: A crumbly texture is very common and easy to fix. Just place the container back in the machine and select Re-Spin. If it is still crumbly, let the pint rest on the counter for 2 to 3 minutes and then re-spin again. It will come out smooth and creamy.
