Ninja Creami Keto Cinnamon Roll Ice Cream
Ingredients
1 cup heavy cream 🥛
1 cup unsweetened almond milk 🥥
1/2 cup powdered erythritol 🍬
4 oz cream cheese, softened 🧀
1 tsp vanilla extract 🌿
2 tsp ground cinnamon 🌰
1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional for added crunch) 🌰
A pinch of salt 🧂
1/2 tsp xanthan gum (optional, for a creamier texture) 🌾
Directions
- Combine the base: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and unsweetened almond milk until well combined.
- Sweeten it up: Add the powdered erythritol to the bowl. Whisk until it is fully dissolved, creating a smooth, sweet mixture.
- Blend the cream cheese: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until it’s smooth and creamy. Slowly add the cream cheese to the cream mixture, whisking until fully incorporated.
- Add the flavors: Stir in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. If using xanthan gum, sprinkle it in and whisk thoroughly to prevent clumping.
- Prepare to chill: Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container. Be sure not to fill past the max fill line. Seal the container with its lid.
- Freeze: Place the container in the freezer for at least 24 hours to allow the mixture to solidify completely.
- Process: Once frozen, remove the pint from the freezer and take off the lid. Insert the container into the Ninja Creami machine and process according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically using the “Ice Cream” setting.
- Optional mix-in: If you like a bit of crunch, add the chopped pecans after processing. Use the “Mix-In” function on the Ninja Creami to evenly distribute the nuts throughout the ice cream.
- Serve: Scoop the creamy, keto cinnamon roll ice cream into bowls or cones. Enjoy immediately!

The Comfort of Cinnamon 🌰
Cinnamon is not only a flavorful spice but also offers numerous health benefits. It’s known for its antioxidant properties and its ability to help regulate blood sugar levels. Combined with the creamy base and a hint of vanilla, it creates a warm and comforting flavor reminiscent of a freshly baked cinnamon roll.
Tips for Perfect Keto Ice Cream 🍦
- Sweetener Substitution: If you prefer, you can use other keto-friendly sweeteners like monk fruit sweetener or stevia. Adjust the amount to suit your taste.
- Texture Tips: For an even creamier texture, consider adding a tablespoon of MCT oil or avocado oil to the mixture before freezing.
- Storage: Store any leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer. If it becomes too hard, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping.
