The ingredients for Yogurt, CrockPot Homemade are:

--8 cups (half-gallon) of 1% milk
(Recommend starting with whole milk until you get the hang of yogurt-making -- pasteurized and homogenized is fine, but do NOT use ultra-pasteurized).

--1/2 cup store-bought natural, live/active culture plain yogurt (you need to have a starter. Once you have made your own, you can use that as a starter)

Knox Gelatin - 1 envelope

--frozen/fresh fruit for flavoring (1 cup raspberries)

--thick bath towel

Here is how you make Yogurt, CrockPot Homemade:

Makes about 8 1-cup servings.Plug in your crockpot and turn to low. Add an entire half gallon of milk. Cover and cook on low for 2 1/2 hours.Unplug your crockpot. Leave the cover on, and let it sit for 3 hours.When 3 hours have passed, scoop out 2 cups of the warmish milk and put it in a bowl. Whisk in live/active natural yogurt and gelatin. Then dump the bowl contents back into the crockpot. Stir to combine.Put the lid back on your crockpot. Keep it unplugged, and wrap a heavy bath towel all the way around the crock for insulation.Go to bed, or let it sit for 8 hours.In the morning, the yogurt will have thickened---it's not as thick as store-bought yogurt, but has the consistency of low-fat plain yogurt.Reserve 1/2 cup as a starter for your next batch.Blend in your favorite fruit (mango, strawberry, raspberry and blueberry). When you blend in the fruit, bubbles will form. They aren't a big deal, and will settle eventually.Chill in a plastic container(s) in the refrigerator. Your fresh yogurt will last 7-10 days. You can achieve a Greek-style yogurt by lining a colander with a coffee liner and letting the liquid drip out.Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user GEMINIGAY.
