A bowl of Ninja Creami frozen yogurt topped with honey and chopped walnuts, served in a grey ceramic bowl with a side of walnuts and a Ninja Creami machine in the background.

Ninja Creami Frozen Yogurt

Ninja Creami Frozen Yogurt is one of my favorite things to make with this machine because the result is so smooth, clean, and genuinely satisfying for how little effort it takes. Just Greek yogurt and honey freeze overnight and the Ninja Creami spins them into a beautifully creamy, lightly tangy frozen yogurt with a soft, scoopable texture that feels nothing like anything from the store. I make this for easy weeknight desserts, light summer treats, and anytime I want something frozen that doesn't feel heavy. Store leftovers covered in the freezer for up to 2 weeks and respin before serving.

Instructions

  • Add the Greek yogurt and honey to the Ninja Creami container. Stir until well combined.
    2⅔ cups Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons honey
  • Cover and freeze on a flat surface for at least 24 hours, or until completely solid.
  • Remove from the freezer, take off the lid, and place the container in the Ninja Creami. Run the Frozen Yogurt setting.
  • If the yogurt looks crumbly after the first spin, respin 1–2 times until smooth. You can also add 1–2 tablespoons of yogurt before respinning for a creamier texture.

Notes

Here are a few things I've learned from making this recipe that'll help you get the best results every time.
Use full-fat Greek yogurt: A higher fat content in the yogurt gives you a richer, creamier result after spinning. Low-fat versions will still work but tend to be a bit icier in texture.
Stir thoroughly before freezing: Make sure the honey is fully mixed into the Greek yogurt before you freeze it. If it's not evenly combined, you'll end up with uneven sweetness in the finished frozen yogurt.
Freeze on a flat surface: Always place the Ninja Creami container on a level surface in your freezer. An uneven freeze can affect how the machine processes the block.
Give it the full 24 hours: Don't rush the freeze time. The container needs to be completely solid all the way through for the Ninja Creami to process it properly.
Respin for creaminess: If the first spin looks crumbly, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of yogurt and run the Respin function. This extra step makes a noticeable difference in the final texture of the frozen yogurt.
Store properly: If you have leftovers or want to prep bowls ahead of time, portion out the frozen yogurt into individual freezer containers and press a piece of plastic on top to prevent ice crystals from forming. Freeze for 1 to 2 weeks, then add your toppings fresh.
