It's no secret we have some food allergies in this house, which can make dessert kind of tricky. I kid you not, our dessert woes are forever over because of this one kitchen appliance. Totally not sponsored, the Ninja CREAMi whips up frozen treats by simply freezing fruit (along with whatever else you want), and letting the appliance do its' magic.
I'll be the first to admit that some of the "dairy-free" ice creams out there aren't exactly delicious. Somehow the CREAMi takes the most simple, frozen ingredients and whips them up into the most perfectly creamy texture. I guess that's how it gets the name.
I've been testing out a few recipes and I have to say, these are my three favorites at the moment. You really can't go wrong with it though!
