Vegan Yogurt in the Instant Pot
Ingredients
- 1 Quart Organic Soy Milk Only Water and Soy Beans should be in the ingredients
- Yogurt Starter For First time: 5 Capsules of Vegan Probiotics 3.4 per capsule; Any time after first: 1/3 Cup of Homemade Soy Yogurt
Instructions
- In a clean 4 cup glass bowl, whisk in 1 Quart of soy milk with yogurt starter (see below for specific notes on starters)
- Place bowl inside Instant Pot, make sure valve is set at "Venting" and place on yogurt mode for 15 hours
- After 15 hours, fold 3 paper towels and place on top of yogurt, cover with airtight lid, and place in refrigerator.
- Keep in refrigerator for at least 2 days. Every 24 hours or so, strain out paper towels and place back on top of yogurt (this helps create a thick and creamy yogurt).
- Be sure to keep about 1/3 Cup of yogurt from this batch to use as a starter for your next batch.
Notes
NOTES:
The first time you make your yogurt using the probiotic capsules as the starter, the texture will be a little watery. DON'T WORRY! Each time after that, when you use your yogurt as the starter, it will get better and better.
The step with straining the yogurt is optional but creates an amazingly creamy texture for your yogurt. I highly recommend it!
It might be tempting, but do not cut into the yogurt when it first comes out of the Instant Pot - otherwise, it will become very watery. Keep it in the refrigerator for at least 2 days
