3 Ingredient Instant Pot "No Boil" Yogurt – Cold begin Dump and Go Yogurt Recipe



You’ve probably heard of the Instant Pot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


But these simple & easy to follow recipes work with any pressure cooker! All pressure cookers work on the same, simple principle: Steam pressure.

Within the sealed pot, the steam builds up therein to a very high pressure, which helps food cook much faster than other traditional methods, such as with crock pots and or ovens!


I’m showing you have to make Cold begin or No Boil Yogurt. The best part is… you only need 3 ingredients to make it!

I love simple recipes so that is why I decided to show you how to make this yogurt. You just dump everything in (a cold begin) and push the yogurt button and you are excellent to go!

This is the Instant Pot I have (yes it is the cheaper one and I love it!): http://amzn.to/2F3Lznx

If you are cooking for 1-2 people I would suggest the 3 Quart. If you are cooking for more, I would suggest the 6 quart!

COLD begin OR NO BOIL YOGURT
The traditional way of making yogurt requires you to heat your milk to a temperature  of 160 – 180 degrees and then to cool it before adding your yogurt starter.  This “scalding” of the milk kills bacteria in the milk before making yogurt.

This step is not important with the cold begin method, because we use a ultra pasteurized, ultra high temp, or shelf stable milk such as Fairlife milk.  These milks have already been heated to a very high temperature before being packaged and sold.

WHAT IS A YOGURT STARTER?
To make yogurt, you need to add live yogurt cultures! This is easier than it sounds.

For our yogurt starter, we use 1-2 Tablespoons of a plain yogurt with live cultures. Check the ingredient list to see if it has live/active cultures– this is a must!

The brand doesn’t matter, but we recommend one low in sugar and additional ingredients.

WHAT KIND OF INSTANT POT do I NEED?
You will need an Instant Pot with the “Yogurt” button.  As long as you have that, you can do this in a 3 quart, 6 quart, or 8 quart Instant Pot.

You can double this recipe, using up to one gallon of milk, in the 6 quart or 8 quart.   We started with a small batch while we figured it out, but it’s been a big batch ever since because we love it so much.
