Crock pot yogurt

The crock pot is good for so many things!!! Here is some yogurt I made the other day. My kids LOVE yogurt so we go through a lot! Doesn't it look yummy? There are many variations on the Internet but this one seems to work well for me and is easy to do:)

CROCK POT YOGURT

8 cups whole milk

1 cup high fat plain yogurt (I buy the kind with no gelatin added)

Pour milk into a very clean crock pot~it is important for it to be very clean if you don't want your yogurt to taste like other foods you've made in there:) I wash mine by hand then also run it through the dishwasher on "hot" setting. This gets rid of the smell of spices etc.

Cook milk on "low" for 2 1/2 hours

Turn off but leave cover ON. Allow to cool for 3 hrs

Take a bit of the warm milk from your crock pot and mix the 1 cup of plain yogurt into it thoroughly

Pour back into the crock pot and mix well.

Put the lid back on and cover the whole crock pot with a heavy bath towel. Leave your crock pot off.

After about 8 hrs you'll have yummy home made plain yogurt!! Put in you fridge to chill. Once chilled.... You can add sugar, vanilla, fruit etc. YUM!
