Yogurt Milk

This is really just a plain old regular yogurt- "Yogurt Milk" is what my kiddo calls it because it USED to be milk. If you want it Greek style, strain it through a coffee filter or a flour sack towel in a wire strainer overnight after you've made it. (We like it this way!)

Ingredients

  • 1/2 gallon whole milk
  • 1 6 oz container plain yogurt
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Put the cold milk in the crockpot. Cover and heat on low for 2 1/2 hours.
  2. Unplug the crock pot and let it sit for 2 1/2 more hours.
  3. Whisk in the yogurt, sugar, and vanilla. Put the lid back on.
  4. Wrap crock pot in a bath towel and let it sit for at least 8 hours. (We do it overnight.)

Recipe Notes

You can do this with low fat or fat free milk, but the flavor won't be as rich or sweet as it is with whole milk. I prefer to use whole milk and less sugar, but your mileage may vary.
