- Pour into a Ninja Creami pint, stopping at the max fill line.
- Cover and freeze on a flat surface for 24 hours.
- Remove the lid, lock the pint into the machine, and spin on Lite Ice Cream.

- Make a well down the center, add the broken Nilla wafers, and run the Mix-In program.4 to 6 Nilla wafers
Notes
- Banana: Use one with plenty of brown spots for the sweetest, strongest banana flavor.
- Thaw before spinning: Let the frozen pint sit on the counter for about 5 minutes, or closer to 10 if your kitchen is cold.
- Extra crunch: Add a few fresh wafers on top right before serving, since the mixed-in ones soften as they sit.
- 16 oz Ninja Creami: Use about two thirds of each ingredient.
- Leftovers: Smooth the top flat before refreezing, then spin again on Lite Ice Cream and add fresh wafers.
