Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups fresh chopped strawberries
  • 1 ½ cups cottage cheese
  • ½ cup milk
  • 3 tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions

  • In a food processor, add the strawberries and cottage cheese and blend until pureed. You can also do this in a blender.
  • Add the milk and maple syrup and blend again until pureed.
  • Transfer the mixture to a Ninja Creami pint container and freeze for 24 hours.
  • Once frozen, insert the pint container into the Ninja Creami ice cream maker and run the ice cream cycle.
  • If it is crumbly (it probably will be), add a tablespoon of milk and run the Re-Spin button. Repeat once more if it is still crumbly.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Storage - store leftovers in the freezer in the Ninja Creami pint container or any airtight freezer-safe container. Before eating again, run it through the Ninja Creami to get it back to creamy.
Serving Suggestions - I liked my strawberry cottage cheese ice cream topped with graham cracker crumbs, so it resembled a strawberry cheesecake. Other topping ideas are hot fudge, chocolate chips, chopped cookies, more chopped strawberries, or any type of fruit.
Ice Cream Maker Instructions - if you don't have a Ninja Creami, you can make this in a regular ice cream machine. Be sure the drum of the ice cream machine is frozen. Add the strawberry mixture to the frozen drum and let it churn until frozen.
