Ninja Apple Cider Italian Ice

Ninja Apple Cider Italian Ice

24 hour prep time

Yields: 3 cups
dairy-free, egg-free, soy-free

Ingredients:

• 3 cups Apple Cider

Directions:

1. Pour Juice into Ninja Creami Deluxe Container, up to Max Fill line
2. Place in freezer for 24 hours without the lid*
3. When ready to enjoy, process using the Ninja Creami Deluxe Italian Ice setting, re-spin if necessary, adding more liquid if needed

Hoff Thoughts: *Freezing without the lid or any covering helps to prevent the “volcano” mound from forming. Should a mound form simply scrape with the back of a spoon & smooth over shavings until a level base is formed, this prevents the blade from cutting into the container.

Easier Basic DIY Yogurt (IP)

Easier Basic DIY Yogurt (IP)

Yields: 2 cups
dairy-free, egg-free, gluten-free, oil-free

Ingredients:

• 14 oz Extra Firm Tofu OR 4 cups homemade Soy Milk
• 1 cup Water (omit if using Soy Milk)
• 3 Vegan Probiotics Capsules (75 Billion) or Yogurt Starter packet or Whey from last batch
• Topping of choice (jam, fruit, nuts, etc.)

Directions (Instant Pot):

1. Blend Tofu, Water & Probiotics or Yogurt Starter OR whisk Soy Milk & Probiotics or Yogurt Starter
2. Pour directly into Instant Pot
3. Cover with lid
4. Select Yogurt setting & change time to 8 (mild) or 12 (tart) hours
5. Transfer Yogurt to another container or cool & strain for a thicker consistency & to retrieve Whey for next batch
6. Serve desired amount with jam, fruit, nuts, etc. or use to make a sauce

Hoff Thoughts: 

• Sterilize IP liner by placing in 400 degree oven for 15 minutes
• Soy Milk should be room temperature or no hotter than 110 degrees, if using
• Your IP will never come up to pressure, the timer will start at zero & go up until the time set; that’s how you know it’s working
• Freeze some of the “Whey” to start your next batch of Yogurt (up to 2-3 times) instead of using Probiotics or starter
• Yogurt good up to two weeks
• Store Probiotics or Yogurt Starter in refrigerator
