The ingredients for Crockpot Yogurt are:

8 cups Whole Milk
1/2 c. nonfat yogurt with live active cultures

Here is how you make Crockpot Yogurt:

Use a 4 quart crockpot. 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 1/2 cup of store-bought live/active culture yogurt. 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. Let it sit for 8 hours.The yogurt will have thickened---it's not as thick as store-bought yogurt, but has the consistency of low-fat plain yogurt. Blend in batches with your favorite fruit. When you blend in the fruit, bubbles will form and might bother you. 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. Save 1/2 cup as a starter to make a new batch.You can use lower-fat content milk, soy milk and soy yogurt or rice milk and rice yogurt. with this method. To thicken the best, add one packet of unflavored gelatin to the mix after stirring in the yogurt with active cultures.You can achieve a Greek-style yogurt by lining a colander with a coffee liner and letting the liquid drip out of the plain yogurt.I got this recipe from http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/2008/10/you-can-make-yogurt-in-your-crockpot.htmlNumber of Servings: 8.5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user LYNNUTTE.
