Both recipes are simple to follow and require minimal ingredients. The traditional recipe yields a firm, tangy yogurt, while the slow cooker recipe produces a creamier, milder yogurt.

Time 12h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups milk (your choice whole-skim)
1/2 cup powdered dry milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 -6 tablespoons sugar (Splenda or honey)
1/2 cup yogurt starter (unflavored plain yogurt with active cultures)

Steps:

  • Set 1/2 yogurt starter out to warm to room temperature.
  • Heat the milk to almost a boil.(I like to microwave in a glass bowl for 5 minutes on high then 2 minutes on medium). Cool the milk (to a "barely warm"/ babies bath temperature) (cool water bath works well). Add dry milk, vanilla and sweetener of your choice; stir well.
  • Stir in yogurt starter (do not whip but mix very well!).
  • "Cook" the yogurt using your preferred method and time (longer makes a firmer, more tart yogurt. I like to cook about 12 hours). Chill 4 hours before eating.

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 cups plain yogurt
2 vanilla beans
1/4 to 1/3 cup honey

Steps:

  • Cut the vanilla beans in half, then slice each half open lengthwise. Scrape the tiny black seeds out of the middle of the beans and add to the yogurt. Stir well to mix.
  • Drizzle in the honey (start with 1/4 cup) and mix well. Taste and add additional honey if you prefer a sweeter yogurt.
  • Keeps refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Make sure the milk is at room temperature before starting the yogurt-making process.
  • Use a thermometer to ensure that the milk reaches the correct temperature (180°F/82°C) before adding the yogurt starter.
  • Allow the yogurt to incubate in a warm place for 6-8 hours, or overnight.
  • Once the yogurt is set, transfer it to the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours before serving.
  • Flavor the yogurt with vanilla extract, honey, fruits, or spices before serving.

Conclusion:

Homemade vanilla yogurt is a delicious, healthy, and versatile snack or breakfast option. It is easy to make and can be flavored in a variety of ways to suit your taste. With a little planning and effort, you can enjoy fresh, creamy, and flavorful homemade yogurt whenever you like.
