Jan 28, 2018-Updated:Jun 02, 2019

Keto Yogurt is by far my best homemade addition to my favorite breakfast, Keto Granola, and its super tasty by itself. You can also make this keto homemade yogurt with normal whole cows milk, as the bacteria consumes most of the naturally occurring sugars, otherwise known as lactose.

Yogurt, or how the British might say Yoghurt… is a truly versatile recipe. I’ve been making quite a few batches of this recipe and mixing it with Keto Granola, sugar-free blueberry maple syrup, and of course keto friendly natural berries.

The photo above is the dairy version, with the whey removed to get a smooth and creamy yogurt that has a tangy bite. If you don’t like the tangy taste that homemade yogurt has, then I’d suggest using a yogurt starter (which you should be able to also buy from your local health food store).

Making yogurt isn’t a new thing. This process has been around for a long time, which is why this recipe is so straightforward. Many people also might have a dedicated yogurt maker, which is basically a well-insulated container that keeps the yogurt fermenting at its prime temperature (42C).

Once the cream or milk has reached its prime temperature (42C) – (108F) pour it into a container, add the probiotic tablet powder to the mixture and stir it with a sterilized metal spoon (sterilized by pouring very hot water over it). As you can see, I’m using a large glass container, which will fit the dairy version perfectly but doesn’t quite touch the sides with the coconut milk version :-).

Once the mixture is properly mixed, cover with a small section of cheesecloth or any other air permitting material. This will let the bacteria inside the jar to release carbon dioxide as it ferments the naturally occurring sugars in the mixture. If you use the lid that comes with the jar and its airtight, be prepared for a sonic boom when you open the container because the fermentation process will pressurize the contents inside. – Trust me, it’s not fun!.

I hope you love this recipe as much as I loved making it 🙂

Ingredients

Dairy Free

  • 400 ml Coconut Cream
  • 1 tsp Guar Gum
  • 2 Whole Probiotic Pills Powdered Form

Whole Milk

  • 1 Liter Full Fat Milk
  • 2 Whole Probiotic Pills Powdered Form

Instructions

Dairy Free

  • Pour the coconut cream into a saucepan, add the guar gum and begin to slowly heat the milk until it begins to boil.
  • Once its boiling, keep it simmering at boil for 7 mins.
  • Remove from the stove and let it cool until it reaches 42 C (108 F). Then transfer into a glass jar, stir in the probiotic tablet powder with a steralised spoon, then cover with a section of cheesecloth with a rubber band around the top.
  • Let it sit in a warm place for 48 hours. (You could also pour this into a thermos to keep the warmth at or around 42 C for longer). You want the teperature to stay at or close to 42 C (108F).

Whole Milk Version

  • Add 1 Litre of full fat milk to a saucepan and proceed the same as above.
  • Instead of letting it sit for 48 hours, only let it sit for 12 hours.
  • If you want it thicker, remove the clear whey protein from the mix by passing the room temperature liquid through a cheese cloth.

    Hi Aaron, it’s hard in Singapore to get the probiotic pills so I would like to use powder instead. How many grams should I use?

    This might be a dumb question, but if you drain off the whey protein from the dairy version…are you actually taking the protein content out of the yogurt?

      You are taking the clear whey, which is mostly carbohydrates, with some protein yes.

      You sure can! If your instant pot has a yogurt setting.

    Hi There! When you indicate Coconut CREAM, are you referring to the thicker stuff that gathers at the top of the can of conconut milk? I should scoop out 400 ml of that?

    Also, could xantham gum be used as a replacement for guar gum? If so, do you have any idea if it would still be 1 tsp of xantham gum, or probably less? And another substitution question 🙂 : could 2 tbsp of yogurt with live bacterial cultures be used to replace the 2 probiotic capsules?

    I just discovered your website through a Google search, and I am so glad I did! I have already bookmarked several of your recipes. Thank you!

      1 – Coconut cream (thick stuff)
      2 – Yes, xanthan gum can be used as a replacement.
      3 – 2 Tbsp of regular yogurt doesn’t contain enough bacteria.

      Thanks so much Julie 🙂

      I’ve kept this for 1-2 weeks before, but use your best judgement.
