Homemade Coconut Milk Yogurt

3 Cans of Full Fat Organic Coconut Milk BPA Free

3 Tablespoons of Pure Maple Syrup (or 2-3 TBS of Organic Raw Honey)

2 – 3 High Quality ProBiotic Capsules (Opened and powder shaken into milk)

1 to 1 1/2 Tablespoons of Unflavored Gelatin 

Poor the coconut milk into a large bowl and whisk to remove any clumps. Add the maple syrup and whisk well until completely combined. Add the probiotic powder and whisk well until completely combined. Next, scoop out about 1 cup of the coconut milk mixture into a large glass measuring cup. Sprinkle 1/2 Tablespoon of the gelatin at a time, whisking quickly so that it doesn’t clump. Continue until you’ve added all the gelatin. As you pour the gelatin mixture back into the coconut mixture, whisk briskly to combine. Make sure it is combined very well and is not all resting on the bottom of the bowl.

Poor into yogurt containers, turn the yogurt maker on, and allow to rest and warm for 12 hours. Halfway through the process. Pick up each jar and swirl to combine the clear liquid that settles at the bottom. Replace and cover for the remaining time. Refrigerate over night before eating. 

*I have also added a Tablespoon of Pure Vanilla Extract and the contents of 2 Vanilla Beans during the whisking process for vanilla yogurt. Very good!

  1. Lovely, thank you April. I have been buying coconut yogurt but wondering if one couldn’t make it. Looks delicious. I need to buy a yogurt maker though. Good luck with the tennis elbow. x

    • They are extremely inexpensive! You don’t have to have one though. Some people put a heating pad on warm, set the jar(s) on it and cover with a towel.

  2. Hi April, I just wanted to drop in to wish you and your darling Mom a very good New Year. I am so happy for Maribell and he retirement. Please give her a big hug and happy smile for me.! I enjoy your recipes a bunch. This one really caught my eye since I am avoiding the same foods that you are lately and I love yogurt! So, thank you, as always.

    Tennis elbow. Maribell may have told you that I love to talk about the BEMER. We have very good luck with helping people to reduce or eliminate the pain from T.Elbow.

Just call me at 509-455-3555 or cell: 808-1913.

    I was happy to hear that you and your hubby had returned to Spokane. I know your Mom is happy about that! See you soon, gay

  3. Sorry to hear the weather has been so dreary. At least if it’s snowing, the outdoors can look very pretty. Sorry to also hear of your tennis elbow. I haven’t had it but my mother had tennis elbow for years. The yoghurt looks great. My husband now has to be dairy-free but loves his yoghurt so I must make this for him as a great and healthy alternative xx

    • Tennis elbow for YEARS!? Oh my goodness, I cannot imagine that. I think mine is getting a tiny bit better. I’ll have to make sure I’m careful and don’t do anything to re-injure it. The coconut milk yogurt is so easy, Charlie. You don’t have to have a yogurt machine either. You can use your oven or a heating pad. Just Google it, there’s all kinds of great ideas. 🙂
