It’s incredibly refreshing, bursting with natural peach flavor, and has that creamy, smooth texture I crave without any guilt. Using the Ninja Creami makes the process so easy and fun, and I’m excited to share how you can make this delightful dessert right at home.

Why You’ll Love This Ninja Creami Peach Frozen Yogurt Recipe

What really stands out to me about this recipe is the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and creamy flavors. The natural sweetness from the peaches pairs beautifully with the richness of the full-fat Greek yogurt, creating a luscious frozen treat that doesn’t feel heavy or overly sweet. Unlike many store-bought frozen yogurts, this one tastes fresh and vibrant, and I love how the peach pieces get fully blended to give you that silky texture.

Besides tasting fantastic, this Ninja Creami Peach Frozen Yogurt Recipe is super simple to whip up. I appreciate that the ingredients are minimal and easy to find, and the whole process is straightforward, thanks to the Ninja Creami’s user-friendly functions. It’s perfect for warm afternoons, family gatherings, or a special weekend treat, and since you control the sweetness, it’s a healthy and satisfying option that everyone can enjoy. The way it freezes to a creamy softness truly makes it stand apart from typical frozen desserts.

Each ingredient in this recipe plays a key role in ensuring the final dessert is creamy, naturally sweet, and full of peachy goodness. The simplicity of the ingredients lets the flavors shine through beautifully.

  • 1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt: Provides the creamy base with great tang and richness.
  • 1 cup drained and diced canned peaches: Adds juicy sweetness and natural peach flavor, essential for that summery taste.
  • Optional 2 tablespoons sugar or monk fruit sweetener: Allows you to customize the sweetness to your liking without overpowering the peaches.

Directions

Step 1: In a small mixing bowl or a large liquid measuring cup, combine the full-fat Greek yogurt and the drained, diced canned peaches. Make sure the peaches are well-drained to avoid excess liquid.

Step 2: Use an immersion blender to blend the mixture until it’s smooth and creamy. I always do this step because it helps me taste and adjust the sweetness more accurately than just stirring.

Step 3: Give the mixture a taste. If you find it needs more sweetness, stir in 2 tablespoons of sugar or your preferred monk fruit sweetener, and mix well until everything is fully combined.

Step 4: Transfer the blended mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container and securely close the lid. Place the container on a flat, level surface in the freezer and leave it to freeze for at least 24 hours to achieve a solid, frozen base.

Step 5: After freezing, remove the pint container from the freezer and take off the lid. Insert the container into the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami machine and lock the lid into place.

Step 6: Place the bowl apparatus into the Ninja Creami machine and lock it securely. Choose the “Lite Ice Cream” button and let the machine complete the mixing cycle for that perfect creamy texture.

Step 7: Check the consistency of your frozen yogurt. If it looks crumbly, just place it back into the machine and hit the “Re-spin” button to refine the texture. If it still seems dry, add one tablespoon of milk and re-spin again. This trick always works great for me to get that ideal creamy softness.

Servings and Timing

This Ninja Creami Peach Frozen Yogurt Recipe yields one generous serving — perfect for a solo treat or a small dessert portion. The prep time is only about 7 minutes, mostly blending and transferring the ingredients. While there is no cooking time, the recipe requires a minimum freezing time of 24 hours to freeze solidly before processing. Overall, you’re looking at just over a full day for the entire time commitment, but the active effort is minimal, making it easy to fit into any schedule.

When I serve this frozen yogurt, I love keeping things light and fresh to match the delicate peach flavor. A sprinkle of toasted almonds or crushed graham crackers on top adds a wonderful crunch and a nutty contrast that balances the creamy texture beautifully. Fresh peach slices or a mint leaf garnish always make my presentation pop with color and elegance.

This dessert pairs delightfully with crisp white wines like a Riesling or a chilled Moscato if you’re in the mood for a little celebration. For a non-alcoholic option, a sparkling lemonade or iced green tea complements the fruity and creamy notes perfectly. I often serve this at summer parties or after a family dinner, where it feels like a special yet easy-to-love finale.

My favorite way to plate this is in a small chilled bowl or glass, allowing the yogurt to stay cold and creamy right up to that first spoonful. I recommend serving immediately after processing for the best texture — just creamy, not too firm and beautifully smooth. This makes portion control easy, ensuring every bite feels indulgent without overdoing it.

Variations

I love customizing this Ninja Creami Peach Frozen Yogurt Recipe to suit different tastes or dietary needs. For instance, you can swap out the full-fat Greek yogurt for a dairy-free coconut yogurt to make it vegan-friendly while keeping that creamy consistency. Keep in mind that coconut yogurt will add a subtle coconut flavor that’s lovely with peaches.

If you’re watching sugar intake, I highly recommend trying monk fruit sweetener or stevia instead of sugar — they blend well and keep the yogurt just as satisfying. For a fun twist on flavor, try adding a splash of vanilla extract or a sprinkle of cinnamon during the blending step; these additions add warmth and complexity that I find irresistible.

While this recipe is designed for the Ninja Creami, if you don’t have one, you can still freeze the mixture in a shallow container, stirring every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals until creamy, although the texture won’t be quite as smooth. It’s a great option for those waiting to try the Ninja Creami themselves!

Storage and Reheating

Storing Leftovers

If you have any leftovers (though I doubt you will!), store them in an airtight container in the freezer to keep them fresh. I recommend transferring the frozen yogurt to a freezer-safe container with a tight lid to avoid freezer burn and absorption of other odors. Properly stored, the frozen yogurt will keep well for up to one week without losing its delightful flavor and texture.

Freezing

This Ninja Creami Peach Frozen Yogurt Recipe freezes beautifully. After your initial 24-hour freeze and processing in the Ninja Creami, you can enjoy it right away or re-freeze any leftovers in the same pint container or a similar airtight container. I find keeping it in the ninja container itself maintains texture best. For longer freezing, up to one month is ideal; beyond that, small ice crystals may develop, somewhat affecting smoothness.

Reheating

Unlike cooked foods, this frozen yogurt shouldn’t be reheated. Instead, to soften it after freezing, I recommend letting it sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before scooping. Alternatively, you can use the Ninja Creami’s “Re-spin” function to refresh the texture and make it creamy again. Avoid using the microwave or high warmth as it will make the yogurt melt unevenly and lose its creamy appeal.

FAQs

Can I use fresh peaches instead of canned peaches in this recipe?

Absolutely! Fresh peaches work wonderfully and offer a more natural flavor. Just make sure they are ripe and peeled for the best results. You’ll want to dice and lightly drain or pat dry any excess juice to keep the mixture from becoming too watery before blending.

Is it necessary to use full-fat Greek yogurt?

Full-fat Greek yogurt gives the creamiest texture and richest flavor, but you can experiment with lower-fat versions for a lighter option. Just know that lower fat content might slightly affect how creamy the final frozen yogurt turns out.

Can I double or triple this recipe to serve more people?

Yes, you can definitely multiply the ingredients to make larger batches. Just be sure to distribute the mixture evenly into multiple Ninja Creami pint containers if you plan to freeze and process more than one serving at a time.

How do I know if the frozen yogurt is too crumbly or if it needs extra milk?

The texture should be smooth and scoopable. If it appears dry or crumbly after the first spin, that’s a sign it needs a little moisture. Adding a tablespoon of milk and re-spinning typically softens the texture perfectly without watering it down.

Can I add mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts?

Yes! After the initial processing, you can mix in small chunks like mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or fresh fruit pieces to add texture and variety. Just gently fold them in by hand for best distribution without affecting the creamy consistency.

Conclusion

Making this Ninja Creami Peach Frozen Yogurt Recipe has quickly become one of my favorite ways to enjoy a refreshing and guilt-free dessert. It’s easy, quick, full of natural flavor, and so satisfying that I find myself craving it often. I’m confident you’ll love the bright peach taste and silky smooth texture as much as I do, so give it a try soon and treat yourself to this delightful homemade frozen yogurt!
