2vegan probiotic capsules(that can be opened and the powder poured out of)
Optional add-ins:
Pureed mango
Chia jam
Maple syrup( for sweetening)
Vanilla extract
Instructions
Shake your coconut milk can vigorously to remove any lumps (you can later whisk or press any remaining lumps out while stirring with the probiotics).
Pour the coconut milk into a clean jar (we sterilised ours by rinsing them with boiling water then cooling them).
Open your probiotic capsules and pour them into the coconut milk. Stir together, pressing against the sides of the jar to ensure it is all evenly distributed (avoid using a metal spoon as metal can react negatively with probiotics, we use a silicone spatula
Cover with a thin cloth and secure using a rubber band (cheesecloth or a thin tea towel work, something that can still allow the yogurt to breathe).
Leave the yogurt to ferment for 24-48 hours depending on the temperature of your house and your preferred level of yogurt tang (test using a wooden or silicone spoon. Also warmer temperatures will require around 24-30 hours and cooler temps in the winter may need 48-56 hours even). If your house is very cold you can also place the yogurt in the oven with the light on (not turned on!)
Once at your desired level of tang, cover with a lid and place in the fridge to set and thicken. Then add any extra additions like chia jam or mango puree and enjoy!
We keep ours in the fridge for 5-7 days.
