What sets our recipe apart?
We’ve ditched the pudding mix and opted for the magic ingredient: unflavored collagen powder. This not only pumps up the protein content but also delivers that perfect, velvety texture you crave.
How to Make:
Preparation:
Freeze your mixture without the lid to prevent doming.
Defrost your frozen protein ice cream for at least 10 minutes before churning.
Run the outside under hot water for 30 seconds to prevent icy buildup.
Churning:
Opt for the full light ice cream cycle for the creamiest texture.
Scrape down the sides to ensure a smooth consistency.
Incorporate your desired mix-ins during the mix-in cycle for an extra flavor punch.
