PUMPKIN YOGURT



Pumpkin Yogurt image

This recipe was inspired by my attempt to increase the amount of pumpkin in my diet. I have started reading SuperFoods RX by Steven Pratt (which I highly recommend) and am learning about all of the nutritional benefits pumpkin has to offer. The challenge is that I am used to eating pumpkin in nothing but pies/cookies/sweet breads etc. I decided to try a pumpkin yogurt because yogurt is also one of Pratt's 14 super foods.

EASY HOMEMADE YOGURT



Easy Homemade Yogurt image

This is a super-easy way someone taught me to make homemade yogurt that requires only 2 ingredients. Pay attention to the notes. Halve the recipe if this is your first time. Usually because store-bought yogurts have lots of additives first-time yogurts do not turn out perfectly. But save 1 cup and use it as base the next time and you will see how well it turns out.

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 gallon 2% milk
1 cup plain yogurt with active cultures

Steps:

  • Pour the milk into a pot and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Reduce heat and simmer, about 10 minutes; do not let it boil over.
  • Remove pot from heat and allow to sit for 30 to 60 minutes. Dip your finger into the milk every once in a while to determine when you can leave your finger in the milk for 10 to 15 seconds without burning. Pour in the yogurt; there is no need to stir.
  • Put the lid on the pot and carefully wrap a blanket around it. Place the wrapped pot in a slightly warm place where it will be undisturbed for 6 to 10 hours; overnight is best. Transfer to the refrigerator to allow the yogurt to continue to thicken.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin: Look for small, sugar pumpkins or pie pumpkins, which have a sweeter, denser flesh that is perfect for baking.
  • Roast the pumpkin: Roasting the pumpkin brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the pumpkin in the oven or in a microwave.
  • Use Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt is a thick, creamy yogurt that is higher in protein and lower in sugar than regular yogurt. It makes a great substitute for sour cream or mayonnaise in recipes.
  • Add spices: Pumpkin pie spice is a classic blend of spices that is perfect for pumpkin yogurt. You can also add other spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, to taste.
  • Sweeten to taste: If you like your yogurt sweet, you can add honey, maple syrup, or sugar to taste.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin yogurt is a delicious, healthy, and versatile snack or breakfast option. It is a good source of protein, fiber, and vitamins. You can enjoy pumpkin yogurt on its own, or use it as a topping for pancakes, waffles, or oatmeal. You can also use it in smoothies, or as a dip for fruit or vegetables.
