Ninja Creami Cinnamon Churro Ice Cream
A thick, creamy, churro-inspired ice cream made with cream cheese, brown sugar, cinnamon, and sweetened condensed milk — no gums, no pudding mix, and naturally high in protein. Spins perfectly in the Ninja Creami for warm bakery flavor in every cold scoop.

Equipment
- 1 Ninja Creami Deluxe 24 ounce
- 24 oz Creami Pint
- 1 Blender
Ingredients
- 1½ cups half & half
- ⅓ cup sweetened condensed milk
- ⅓ cup cream cheese softened
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until completely smooth.
- Pour into a 24 oz Ninja Creami Deluxe pint. Freeze 24 hours.
- Spin using the Ice Cream setting.
- If crumbly, press Respin. Add 1–2 tablespoon half & half only if needed.
- For add-ins, create a well in the center and run Mix-In.
- Scoop and enjoy, or freeze 15 minutes to firm up.
Notes
- Use softened cream cheese — cold blocks won’t blend smoothly.
- For stronger churro flavor, add a pinch more cinnamon.
- If your pint freezes rock hard, give it 5 minutes on the counter before spinning.
- Want more protein? Replace the cream cheese with ½ cup cottage cheese.
- Mix-ins only go in after the Respin (never before freezing).
