Directions
1
In your Instant Pot bowl, mix together all of the yogurt starter and milk.
2
Set the Instant Pot to the 'Yogurt' setting with cook time of 11 hours. Start first thing in the morning, then it will be ready for the next step after dinner.
3
Once the yogurt is done cooking, transfer to your milk nut bag to strain to your desired thickness. I transfer the milk nut bag back into the Instant Pot bowl raised on top of an egg steamer rack accessory. I like to strain for ~12 hours overnight.
4
After straining, transfer to a mixer.
5
On slow speed add 2 tsp vanilla, ½ tbsp. liquid monk fruit sweetener (or more for your liking).
6
Store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Don't let the overall time let you put this off. Most of the time is unsupervised. You only need to set it and forget it. I like to start the process either right when I am serving breakfast, or after dinner/before bed. This way, the cooking process is happening during the day or while you are sleeping. There is no checking on it, stirring it, etc. Perform the straining step also either while you are sleeping or throughout the day.
I use Fairlife's Ultra-filtered whole milk. It has reduced sugar and is lactose free. This allows the boiling step of most yogurt recipes to be skipped.
Tips for Success
Start the process before bed and allow it to cook while you are sleeping!
