Crock Pot Yogurt

1. 1

   Plug in your crockpot and turn to low.

2. 2

   Add an entire half gallon of milk.

3. 3

   Cover and cook on low for 2 1/2 hours.

4. 4

   Unplug your crockpot.

5. 5

   Leave the cover on, and let it sit for 3 hours.

6. 6

   When 3 hours have passed, scoop out 2 cups of the warmish milk and put it in a bowl.

7. 7

   Whisk in 1/2 cup of store-bought live/active culture yogurt.

   Then dump the bowl contents back into the crockpot.

9. 9

   Stir to combine.

10. 10

    Go to bed, or let it sit for 8 hours.

11. 11

    In the morning, the yogurt will have thickened---it's not as thick as store-bought yogurt, but has the consistency of low-fat plain yogurt.

12. 12

    Blend in batches with your favorite fruit.

13. 13

    I did mango, strawberry, and blueberry.

14. 14

    When you blend in the fruit, bubbles will form and might bother you.

15. 15

    They aren't a big deal, and will settle eventually.

16. 16

    Chill in a plastic container(s) in the refrigerator.

17. 17

    Your fresh yogurt will last 7-10 days.

18. 18

    Save 1/2 cup as a starter to make a new batch.
