Homemade Yogurt in a Cooler!
- Reviews 1
Ready In: 6 hrs 20 mins
Serves: 8
Yields: 1 quart
Ingredients
- 3 1⁄2 cups milk (I use 1%)
- 1⁄2 cup powdered milk
- 3 tablespoons plain yogurt (make sure it contains "live cultures")
Directions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm milk to 185 degrees, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
- Add dry milk to warmed milk and whisk until dissolved.
- Place pan in a large bowl with ice water and cool milk down to 110 degrees.
- Place 3 T yogurt in a small bowl and mix with about 1/2 cup of warm milk.
- Pour pan of warm milk into a one quart jar, then add yogurt mixture.
- Partially fill a 1 gallon drink cooler with 110 degree water (I use one with the spout in the lid, but any small cooler will work).
- Place jar in cooler and make sure the water comes up to just below the lid.
- Cover cooler and place in a warm, sunny spot in your yard for 6-8 hours! The sun will help the yogurt stay nice and warm while it incubates.
- Refridgerate and enjoy!
