When you’re trying to watch your sugar intake, you know how hard it is to find sweet treats that actually taste good.

Because whether you’re a diabetic or trying to decrease carbs in your diet, you shouldn’t have to sacrifice flavor.

That’s why I love making sugar-free Ninja Creami recipes!

It’s super easy to customize ingredients and make a delicious dessert that meets your dietary needs.

This Ninja Creami sugar free vanilla ice cream is the perfect example!

All you need is a few ingredients to create a silky smooth, indulgent treat–with no added sugar!

It’s one of our favorite Ninja Creami vanilla ice cream recipes, and once you try it, you’ll see why.

Ninja Creami Vanilla Ice Cream with No Added Sugar

One of my favorite ways to make sugar-free Ninja Creami treats is to use sugar-free instant pudding mix.

Using pudding mix in Ninja Creami recipes is a fantastic way to add flavor, sweetness, and improve the texture of your creation.

It cuts down on the iciness and helps give it a creamier consistency.

That’s how I make my Ninja Creami sugar-free pistachio ice cream and Ninja Creami sugar-free chocolate ice cream.

If you’re just cutting back on added sugars, you can use dairy in this recipe. But be advised that dairy does contain natural sugars.

So if you truly need a sugar-free dessert, you’ll want to opt for sugar-free nondairy milk and canned coconut cream.

How to Make it:

(Full printable recipe card is available below)

Dissolve the pudding mix. To start, you’ll combine milk and pudding mix in a small mixing bowl or large liquid measuring cup.

Use an immersion blender or whisk to combine, until the pudding mix has dissolved.

Freeze. Transfer the pint to a level surface in your freezer. Freeze for at least 24 hours.

Spin. Remove the pint from the freezer and take off the lid. Place the container into the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami machine and secure the outer bowl lid into place.

Lock the outer bowl into the machine and press the Lite Ice Cream button.

Allow the cycle to complete.

Re-spin if needed. Remove the pint from the machine and check your ice cream’s consistency. If the texture is a little powdery or crumbly, insert it back into the machine and press the Re-spin button.

If it’s still crumbly, add a tablespoon of milk and then Re-spin it again. It should be nice and creamy after the second re-spin!

Serve and enjoy!

Notes and Adaptations:

  • If you’re eliminating added sugars and can tolerate dairy, you can use milk and heavy cream in this recipe. If you can’t tolerate the natural sugars in dairy, opt for a sugar-free nondairy milk and some canned coconut cream.
  • Feel free to add the mix-ins of your choice, such as sugar-free cookie pieces, nuts, or sugar-free candy.
