If you think coconut yogurt is a delicacy with a high price tag, listen up: you can easily make your own delicious, creamy coconut yogurt at home!
All you need is two ingredients – canned full-fat coconut milk and probiotic capsules.
An exceptionally healthy fermented food, coconut yogurt is easy to make and is perfect for parfaits. It’s unsweetened (you can sweeten it to taste) and has more healthy bacteria than a store-bought yogurt.
Ingredients:
- 1 can of organic coconut milk (I get this one)
- 3 dairy free probiotic capsules (I used Life Equals probiotic)
- Directions:
- Mix the milk and probiotics by opening the capsules and adding the contents into the coconut milk. Discard the capsules.
- Optionally, add stevia or your sweetener of choice.
- Close the lid tightly and shake.
- Store the jar in a dark corner on your kitchen counter for three days, shaking or stirring with a clean spoon every 12 hours.
- Then, refrigerate your yogurt, and it will thicken. Once thickened and chilled, serve with your favorite granola, berries, nuts, and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Trust me, the jar will be gone very quickly!
