Easy Slowcooker Yogurt Recipe

Recipe Description:

This is the BEST yogurt we’ve ever had. My husband loves it, and he’s not that easy to please. 🙂 I enjoy it plain, but my favorite way is with a little real maple syrup drizzled on top.

Prep Time: 15 Minutes

Cook Time: 13 Hours and 30 Minutes

Servings: 16

Difficulty: Easy

Recipe Ingredients:

2 quarts raw milk

1/2 cup yogurt with live cultures

Recipe Instructions:

Pour 2 quarts (1/2 gallon) raw milk into your 3.5 - 4 quart Crockpot.

Put on the lid, plug it in, turn it on low and set the timer for 2 1/2 hours (2.5 hours.)

Turn off and unplug the Crockpot and let it sit undisturbed for 3 more hours. Then, measure out 1/2 cup plain yogurt (with live cultures) and mix it into 2 cups of the warm milk.

Pour the milk with the yogurt back into the Crockpot, mix well and put on the lid. Then wrap the whole thing up with a couple of big fuzzy towels or a nice warm blanket and let it sit for another 8 hours. Longer (if you are doing it overnight) will not hurt (up to a point!)

Pour it into a container (I use a half-gallon jar) put on the lid and refrigerate.

Thank you for the recipe! My family loves this! I was wondering if you knew how to adjust the recipe and cooking times to make a gallon of yogurt at one time? I have a large family and would like to make a weeks worth at one time. Thank you!
