Instructions
- Prepare the Ice Cream Base: Whisk together the oat milk, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and vanilla protein powder in a bowl until fully combined and smooth.
- Freeze the Mixture: Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, secure the lid, and freeze for 12 to 24 hours until it solidifies.

- Spin on Milkshake Setting: Place the container into the Ninja Creami machine and select the milkshake function to blend until smooth and creamy.
- Stir and Respin: Remove the pint, stir the mixture gently to incorporate any separated ingredients, and respin on the milkshake setting for an extra thick and smooth milkshake consistency.
- Serve or Store: Enjoy immediately for a thick milkshake that melts quickly or store leftover milkshake in the pint container in the freezer for up to one week.
- Reheat Tips: Allow leftovers to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, add one tablespoon of oat milk, and respin on the milkshake setting before serving again.
Notes
- Tip: Swap oat milk for soy milk to maintain a creamy texture while increasing the protein content.
- Store: Keep any leftover milkshake in a Ninja Creami pint container in the freezer for up to one week.
- Serve: For the best texture after freezing, let the milkshake sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, add a tablespoon of milk, and respin on the milkshake setting.
