Ingredients
- 4 cups coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon gelatin
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 4 count probiotic capsules
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, pour 3 cups of coconut milk and heat over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally. Heat until it's steaming but not boiling, approximately 5 minutes.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of gelatin with the remaining 1 cup of coconut milk. Stir well to dissolve the gelatin completely.
Step 3
Pour the gelatin and coconut milk mixture into the heated coconut milk in the saucepan, stirring constantly to combine the ingredients thoroughly.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool down to about 110°F (43°C) or until it's warm to the touch.
Step 5
Stir in the honey and vanilla extract, if using, ensuring everything is well mixed.
Step 6
Open the probiotic capsules and sprinkle the contents into the coconut milk mixture. Use a whisk to mix gently but thoroughly, ensuring that the probiotics are evenly distributed.
Step 7
Pour the mixture into sterilized glass jars, leaving about half an inch of space at the top. Seal them with a lid or cover with cheesecloth secured by a rubber band.
Step 8
Place the jars in a warm place to ferment. This can be inside an oven with the light on, a dehydrator set at 110°F, or a yogurt maker. Let it ferment for 12-24 hours, depending on your preference for tartness.
Step 9
After fermentation, refrigerate the jars for at least 4 hours to set the yogurt fully.
Step 10
Stir the yogurt before serving to ensure even consistency. Enjoy your homemade Paleo yogurt with your favorite toppings!
