Ingredients
  • 16 oz cottage cheese (I used 1% small curd)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (organic)
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree (organic, NOT pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 18 Simple Mills Sweet Thins (I use the 12-18 of the simple mills sweet thins as a healthy alternative to graham crackers)
Instructions
  1. 1
    In a pint-sized Ninja CREAMi container, combine all of the ingredients except for the graham crackers. Mix well, cover with the lid, and freeze for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  2. 2
    Place the frozen pint in your Ninja CREAMi and process using the Lite Ice Cream setting.
  3. 3
    Run the Lite Ice Cream setting a second time for an extra smooth and creamy texture.
  4. 4
    Remove the pint from the machine and take off the lid. Gently press the sweet thins into the center of the ice cream.
  5. 5
    Return the pint to the Ninja CREAMi and process using the Mix-In setting to evenly incorporate the sweet thins throughout the ice cream.
  6. 6
    If the ice cream is softer than you’d like, place it back in the freezer for about 10 minutes to firm up. Then dig in and enjoy!
