Ingredients
Base Ingredients:
2 cups (300g) frozen peach slices (no added sugar)
1 cup (240g) plain Greek yogurt (full-fat preferred)
1/3 cup (80ml) raw honey
1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp (1.5g) sea salt
Ginger Component:
1 tsp (5g) fresh ginger, finely grated
1/4 tsp (0.5g) ground ginger (optional, for extra warmth)
Make it Good For The Gut (Optional)
Replace 1/2 cup Greek yogurt with plain kefir for additional probiotics and tangier flavor. Add 1 tablespoon collagen peptides for gut-healing amino acids. Include 1 teaspoon prebiotic fiber powder (flavorless) to feed beneficial bacteria. Use raw honey with propolis for additional antimicrobial benefits. Add 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder with ginger for enhanced anti-inflammatory properties.
Remix Options
Sweetener Alternatives: Use pure maple syrup, coconut nectar, or monk fruit sweetener to taste preference. Fruit Variations: Try frozen mango, nectarines, or apricots for different stone fruit flavors. Dairy-Free Version: Use coconut yogurt or cashew yogurt instead of Greek yogurt. Spice Variations: Add cardamom, cinnamon, or fresh mint for different flavor profiles. Texture Add-ins: Fold in chopped crystallized ginger, toasted coconut flakes, or crushed graham crackers after processing. Adult Version: Add 1-2 tbsp bourbon or rum for sophisticated twist. Lower Sugar: Reduce honey to 1/4 cup and add stevia drops to taste.
Good To Know
Greek Yogurt Benefits: Full-fat Greek yogurt provides natural probiotics, protein, and creamy texture while being lower in sugar than regular yogurt – creates perfect tangy base. Fresh Ginger Power: Fresh grated ginger adds warming spice with anti-inflammatory properties and digestive benefits – more potent than dried. Ninja Creami Tips: Freeze mixture completely solid (24 hours minimum) before processing for best texture – partial freezing creates icy results. Peach Selection: Use high-quality frozen peaches without added sugar for best flavor and texture – fresh peaches work but add extra freezing time. Honey Integration: Raw honey adds enzymes and complex sweetness while helping prevent ice crystals from forming during freezing. Processing Technique: Run “frozen yogurt” setting on Creami, then “re-spin” once for ultra-smooth texture if needed. Serving Consistency: Let sit 2-3 minutes at room temperature before scooping for easier serving – texture should be creamy, not rock-hard. Storage Excellence: Store in airtight container up to 1 week in freezer – press plastic wrap directly onto surface to prevent ice crystals.
steps
Combine:
Add frozen peach slices, Greek yogurt, honey, fresh grated ginger, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt to food processor or high-speed blender.
Process:
Blend until completely smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. Mixture should be thick but blendable – add 1-2 tbsp liquid if too thick.
Transfer:
Pour mixture into Ninja Creami pint container, filling to max fill line. Cover tightly with lid and ensure no air pockets remain in mixture.
Freeze:
Freeze for minimum 24 hours until completely solid throughout. Mixture must be frozen solid for Creami to process properly.
Process:
Install pint container in Ninja Creami and run “frozen yogurt” setting. If texture is still icy or chunky, run “re-spin” setting once for ultra-smooth consistency.
Serve:
Serve immediately for soft-serve texture, or freeze additional 1-2 hours for firmer scoopable consistency. Let sit 2-3 minutes before scooping if very firm.
Alternative:
For traditional ice cream maker: chill mixture 2 hours, then churn according to manufacturer’s directions, usually 20-25 minutes until thick and creamy.
Store:
Keep in airtight container in freezer up to 1 week. Press plastic wrap directly onto surface before covering to prevent ice crystal formation.
