Keto Meal Description and Nutrition Highlights
This ice cream is ultra-light, with the creaminess coming from a touch of Greek yoghurt and the natural sweetness and colour from blueberries and lemon. It’s low in fat, sugar, and carbs, but big on flavour and refreshment. The Ninja Creami transforms this mix into a smooth, scoopable dessert.

Directions
Make the base: In a bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk, Greek yoghurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, erythritol (or allulose), vanilla extract, and xanthan gum (if using) until smooth.
Add the swirl: Lightly mash the blueberries with a fork. Stir them into the mix for a ripple effect, or layer them in for a more defined swirl.
Freeze: Pour the mixture into your Ninja Creami pint container. Freeze upright for at least 12–24 hours until solid.
Spin: Remove from freezer, install the pint in your Ninja Creami, and use the “Lite Ice Cream” or “Sorbet” function. If the texture is too crumbly, add a splash of almond milk and respin.
Serve: Scoop and enjoy your zesty, fruity, keto-friendly ice cream!
