If you own a multicooker and have not tried making Instant Pot yogurt with almond milk, you are missing out! Instant Pots (also known as multicookers) are awesome for making all sorts of homemade yogurt recipes.
The problem with using thickeners for homemade almond milk yogurt is that they can make yogurt lumpy or grainy. Additionally, some yogurt thickeners (specifically gelatin) are not vegetarian or vegan diet friendly.
Luckily, there's an easy way to make an almond milk yogurt recipe for the Instant Pot that's thick without thickeners. And even better, this vegan yogurt is packed with plant-based protein! Keep reading to get the scoop from this registered dietitian nutritionist on how to make it.
The type of almond milk and yogurt you use is critical to the recipe! Regular almond milk will not make thick almond milk yogurt without thickeners. You must use a protein almond milk to get this recipe to work.
This is a Silk almond milk yogurt Instant Pot recipe. You can find the Silk protein almond milk in many regular grocery stores in the United States. (This milk is actually a combination of almonds and cashews, so I guess we can also call this a cashew yogurt Instant Pot recipe.)
I recommend using this plain and unsweetened Kite Hill almond milk yogurt. One container is enough to make several batches of Instant Pot almond milk yogurt. You may also be able to save some yogurt from your first batch to use as a starter in subsequent batches.
I use a Crock-Pot Express 6-Quart Pressure Cooker to develop my Instant Pot recipes. Other Instant Pots, such as the Ninja Foodi, can make almond milk yogurt too. If your multi-cooker is small, you may need to make the yogurt in multiple batches.
To make yogurt, pour the almond milk into the Instant Pot. With the lid off, set the pot to the \"yogurt, high temperature\" setting. Whisking occasionally, let the milk come to 180 degrees Fahrenheit (82C).
Let the milk cool on the counter to 105-110F (40.6-43.3C), whisking occasionally. After cooling, remove one cup of the almond milk and add in the yogurt, whisking until smooth. Then whisk this yogurt mixture back into the larger pot of milk.
It is very important NOT to add the yogurt until the milk cools to 105-110F (40.6-43.3C). Adding the yogurt too early will kill the live and active cultures, resulting in a failed batch. Put the lid on the Instant Pot but leave the vent open.
Almond milk yogurt stays fresh in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Some readers say almond milk yogurt can be frozen, but the texture changes a bit with thawing. If the defrosted yogurt is too lumpy, try whisking it well to help make it smooth again.
Some other sides for almond milk yogurt include blueberries, raspberries, and this Chocolate Hazelnut Granola. You can also serve yogurt with eggs or use it in overnight oats recipes. (How about my Low Sugar Peach Jam Overnight Oats)
My top nutritional pick for plant-based yogurt goes to plain, unsweetened, calcium-fortified soy yogurt. Soy is a legume that usually provides higher protein than almond and oat yogurt alternatives. Ideally, the soy yogurt is fortified with nutrients such as calcium and vitamin B12 to be similar to dairy milk.
Calcium-fortified and protein-fortified almond milk can be a good alternative for those on dairy free and soy free diets. The almond protein milk used here is fortified with pea protein. (Important! This almond milk is NOT fortified with vitamin B12, a nutrient that should be supplemented in vegan diets.)
Question: When you say another almond milk won't work, do you mean the good bugs won't multiply or just that it won't thicken I am unconcerned about the thickness, I just want the probiotics.Thank you for your time.
Hi Diane, great question! I'm thinking it won't culture or thicken well, particularly with the unsweetened 30 calorie almond milks. You may be able to get the good bacteria to multiply with a regular sweetened almond milk, but there won't be the visual indicator with the thickening that the recipe worked.
I used the Silk protein almond and cashew milk and it worked like a charm! Creamy and thick. Easy peasy and I've just made my third batch. Thanks for a simple recipe...I didn't want to have to add a thickener.
Hi Anige, thank you for asking about this. The reason I suggest throwing it out if the batch failed is that it's a food safety risk. It's the same reason I would not suggest drinking regular almond milk or dairy milk that sits out that long without refrigeration.
Hi Kristen, you have to use the type of almond milk I mentioned in the article for this recipe to work. You can't use freshly made almond milk or another brand (though another brand of protein almond milk may work). Also, making yogurt is tricky, and unfortunately even experienced yogurt makers get a failed batch on occasion. I've made this one many times now, so I know it works!
Hi Nima, it should thicken a bit more in the fridge! The most important thing is to use the protein almond milk I talked about in the article. The thinner almond milks and homemade almond milk will likely not work.

But as their name implies, they offer more of a culinary experience. Their flavors include dairy-free yogurt originals like Blueberry Lavender, Strawberry Rose, and Mango Orange Blossom.

Almonds are a good source of vitamin E, fiber, biotin, calcium and magnesium and relatively budget-friendly. Compared to dairy milk (both high and low fat), almond milk has fewer calories and still tastes delicious!
Most dairy-free yogurts (our almond milk recipe included!) include live active cultures called probiotics that support healthy digestion. Good gut bacteria keep us healthy by supporting our immune function and controlling inflammation.
Going for homemade almond milk allows you to have control over every single component of your dairy-free yogurt and by using a larger amount of almonds, you can create a thicker milk base to begin with.
Please be aware that most of these must be mixed into the cold almond milk and then heated to unfold their magic. You can see an example of using arrowroot powder to create some easy and delicious vegan vanilla custard here.

mix the arrowroot powder with a bit of cold almond milk, then heat it up with the rest of the almond milk to around 85ºC/185F (just before it starts boiling) on low-medium heat. The let it cool down for around 30 minutes before adding the yogurt starter (milk should at about 45ºC/113ºF), then pour in your desired sterilized jar(s) and let the yogurt incubate for 24 hrs.
thank you for this wonderful recipe. I would really like to give it a try. However, all the probiotics I have had yet did really work with almond milk (especially not without adding a lot of thickeners. Which one do you use As I am from Germany, do you have one you recommend that is available here
Aside from cashew milk, Forager yogurts are made with coconut milk, natural thickeners, and live active cultures. They contain live active cultures, including S. thermophilus, L. bulgaricus, L. acidophilus, Bifidus, L. lactis, and L. plantarum.
So Delicious also recently debuted a line of coconut milk yogurts flavored with botanical extracts. These come in flavors like mango with ginger & turmeric, strawberry with elderberry extract, and mixed berry with chamomile extract.
Silk offers numerous dairy-free products, including yogurts made from almond milk. The unsweetened variety also contains chicory root extract, live active cultures, and thickening and flavoring agents.
Whether you're avoiding dairy, or cannot consume it altogether, sometimes it's tricky to consume your favorite foods. That doesn't have to be the case with yogurt. We've tested our Vegan Yogurt Starter Culture with our homemade nut milk to bring you a recipe for vegan yogurt that will allow you to enjoy smooth, delicious yogurt, without the dairy.
2. Use thickeners- I know runny yogurt isn't quite appealing. Almond milk yogurt may be more runny so you need thickeners. You can try to find additive-free thickeners when sticking to healthy options.
Then, just like when making dairy yogurt, the hot milk needs to cool down to the proper incubation temperature. The fastest way to cool the milk is in an ice bath. Keep an eye on the temperature and stir frequently. Once the milk reaches 115 degrees, remove it from the ice bath.
Note: You can make this yogurt without the almond milk; substitute 1 1/2 cups of water or a second can of coconut milk (see above). Yogurt cultures are available through Cultures for Health or YoGourmet. Other recipe writers say that you can also use the contents of probiotic supplement capsules instead of a starter; start with the contents of four capsules and include the optional sweetener. 781b155fdc
