Instructions

Whisk the coconut cream until smooth and creamy.

Add the fresh lemon juice, maple syrup, and non-dairy milk. Continue whisking until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

If using, add 2–3 drops of yellow non-toxic food coloring and mix until you reach your desired color.

Pour the mixture into your Ninja Creami container and freeze for 24 hours.

Once frozen, use the Lite Ice Cream button on your Ninja Creami according to your machine’s instructions. Depending on which Ninja Creami model you have, you can also use the soft serve or swirl function.

Add a little fresh mint if desired, serve immediately, and enjoy your creamy lemon cloud!

Tips

Make sure your mixture is completely smooth before freezing so you get the creamiest texture possible.
Freezing for a full 24 hours gives the Ninja Creami the best base to work with.
If your soft serve comes out crumbly after the first spin, add a splash of non-dairy milk and run it through the machine again.
For a stronger lemon flavor, add a little extra lemon zest.
The coconut cream helps create that rich, creamy texture, but you can experiment with different thicker non-dairy milks depending on your preference.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different electrolyte powder?

Yes! You can use another lemon electrolyte powder, but the flavor and sweetness may vary depending on the brand.

Do I have to use coconut cream?

Coconut cream helps create a creamy soft serve texture, but you can experiment with other creamy dairy-free options.

Can I make this without collagen peptides?

Absolutely. The collagen adds extra protein and nutrition, but the recipe will still work without it.

What Ninja Creami setting should I use?

For the best texture, use the Lite Ice Cream button. Depending on your Ninja Creami model, you may also have a soft serve or swirl option.
