Ingredients

  • 1 cup almonds
  • 3 cups hot water
  • tablespoon homemade yogurt or store bought plain cashew yogurt

Instructions

  • Soak the almonds overnight or for 8 hours. Drain, rinse, and deskin the almonds.
    1 cup almonds
  • Place the skinned almonds in a high powder blender (Blendtec) and add 2 cups hot water.
  • Blend for a minute or until it gets a smooth liquid consistency.
  • Add 1 more cup of hot water and blend again for 60 seconds. Now the almond milk is ready.
  • Add the almond milk to a small bowl and let it settle down close to room temperature for 5 minutes.
  • Stir once and add 1 ½ tablespoon vegan plain probiotic yogurt (homemade or store-bought).
  • Mix well and close the lid.
  • Transfer the glass bowl to a dry inner pot (in other words, do not put water in the Instant Pot)
  • Lock the lid, open the vent, and press the Yogurt button. The default time for yogurt setting in the Instant Pot is 8 hours. However, I always do it longer, like 10 -12 hours.
  • If you are not using an Instant Pot, then place them in whatever incubation method you are using (oven, dehydrator, etc.)
  • As the timer expires, take the glass bowl of yogurt out and refrigerate.
  • Homemade Almond Milk Yogurt is ready! Enjoy!

Notes

    • If you like a thicker consistency, add only 3 cups water. Otherwise, increase one more cup of water.
    • If you ever notice that your non-dairy yogurt has separated while stored in the refrigerator, stir it up with a whisk or spoon until all ingredients are fully combined. You'll be able to create a perfectly blended and creamy texture just like before!
    • Instead of a plain vegan yogurt starter, you can use probiotic capsules with no other changes in the procedure.
