protein powder ice cream recipes

lmerritt · 09-12-2009, 02:09 PM

I have heard people make ice cream with protein powder. I received an ice cream maker for Christmas last year and haven't even tried it yet as most recipes are too high calorie for me.

Does anybody have any ideas for how to use it with protein powder to make a low cal / high protein ice cream? Or any ideas as to how to make a low calorie ice cream with it? I would appreciate any help or links to sites that have ideas.... Thanks!!

http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=491806 has a few protein powder ice cream ideas. I haven't tried any of them yet (though I have been experimenting with cooking with whey).

just be wary... chucking a protein rich mixture into an ice cream maker does not turn out nicely...

Uh oh. Is there something we should be afraid of? Do tell.

It's not exactly ice cream, but it's tasty and easy. http://littledoglost.blogspot.com/20...ice-cream.html

Sometimes I do banana, water, and protein powder, too. It's pretty good.

depends on how much you like slowly picking frozen bricks out of your ice cream maker

This may not be EXACTLY what you were looking for, but see if this helps... Enjoy.

LOW CALORIE HOMEMADE ICE CREAM
1 qt. prepared non-fat dry milk
4 to 6 eggs, beaten
5 tsp. sugar substitute (equal to 1 1/2 c. sugar)
1 lg. can evaporated skim milk
1 tbsp. vanilla
1 can sweetened condensed milk
Gives ice cream richer and creamer texture and taste of more fattening ice cream, but may be left out to cut calories even more.
Scald milk; slowly add beaten eggs and sugar substitute. Mix well. Add canned milks and vanilla. If fruit is desired, add now.
Pour in ice cream freezer container and add more milk to make it 2/3 full. Add more sweetener if not sweet enough and make sure it is mixed thoroughly. Cover, put in freezer and surround with ice and rock salt. Crank or electric freeze! Makes 5 quarts or about 12 large servings.
