Method
- Bloom the gelatin. Pour the water in a wide, shallow bowl and sprinkle the gelatin or agar agar on top. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
- Heat the milk. Heat the coconut milk in a pot on medium-high heat. Gently simmer until the temperature reaches 180°F, then turn off the heat. Add the gelatin or agar powder to the pot and stir for several minutes, until all the powder has dissolved.
- Cool the milk. Let the pot cool to 110 to 115°F. This will take 30 minutes or more. Alternatively, place the pot in an ice-water bath to expedite the process.
- Add sweetness and tang. Once the coconut milk has cooled, pour 1 cup into a small bowl. Add the maple syrup and probiotic powder and whisk until there are no clumps of probiotic powder. Pour this cup back into the pot and whisk thoroughly.
- Cook and chill the yogurt. Pour the coconut milk yogurt into the jars of your yogurt machine. Turn the machine on and cook for 7 to 9 hours. The longer you cook, the more tangy the yogurt becomes. Once the coconut yogurt is done (note that it will still be fairly liquid at this stage), refrigerate it for 2 to 3 hours to firm up.
- Serve. Before serving, stir the contents of the yogurt jar as a slight film may form on top. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy!
