How to Make Yogurt in a Crock Pot POSTED ON 09/09/2014 BY G*L*O*W ACADEMY(RENEE) AROUND HERE I EAT A LOT OF YOGURT ,SO THIS MORNING I PUT ON A BATCH . I AM GOING TO MAKE SOME PLAIN YOGURT SINCE MY SON LIKES IT PLAIN,AND I WILL BE MIXING STRAWBERRIES ,AND BANANAS INTO SOME FOR ME… SO I THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE HOW I AM MAKING IT … YOU WILL NEED: A CROCK POT (I USED A 4 OR MY 6 QUART CROCKPOT) 8 CUPS OF WHOLE MILK, PREFERABLY ORGANIC, BUT IT MUST NOT BE ULTRA-PASTEURIZED. PASTEURIZED IS FINE 1/2 CUP OF PLAIN, WHOLE MILK (NOT LOW FAT OR FAT FREE) YOGURT, PREFERABLY ORGANIC, OR 1/2 CUP HOMEMADE YOGURT FROM A PREVIOUS BATCH A LARGE, HEAVY BATH TOWEL HERE IS WHAT YOU DO: POUR THE 8 CUPS OF MILK INTO YOUR CROCK POT AND REPLACE THE LID. PUT THE CROCK POT ON LOW FOR 2 1/2 HOURS. TURN THE CROCK POT OFF AND LET IT SIT WITH THE WARMED MILK FOR 3 HOURS. AFTER THE 3 HOURS HAS PASSED, GET OUT ONE TO TWO CUPS OF THE WARM MILK FROM THE CROCK POT, AND MIX IN 1/2 CUP OF THE PLAIN YOGURT INTO THE MILK
