Description

Make your own homemade cultured Instant Pot soy yogurt the healthy, easy, budget-friendly way with only two ingredients: plain soy yogurt starter and soymilk. You can be picky about the ingredients and create a delicious, nutritious vegan yogurt for your everyday meals and as an ingredient in your favorite recipes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup cultured soy yogurt, plain, unsweetened (i.e., Silk Plain Soy Yogurt) OR 1 packet non-dairy yogurt starter (see instructions below)
  • 1 quart soymilk, fortified, plain, unsweetened (see notes below)

Instructions

  1. Place plain, unsweetened cultured soy yogurt in the container of an Instant Pot. (See below for instructions if you are using a yogurt starter packet.)
  2. Add 1 quart of plain, unsweetened fortified soymilk to the container.
  3. Stir well.
  4. Cover with the lid of the Instant Pot, fasten it well, and press the Yogurt setting (about 8 hours of low temperature cooking designed for culturing yogurt).
  5. When Instant Pot cycle is complete, open lid, and transfer yogurt to an airtight 1- quart container, reserving ½ cup in a separate airtight container for making a future batch of cultured soy yogurt.
  6. Place in the refrigerator for up to 10-14 days. Plan on making your next batch of soy yogurt using the reserved cultured soy yogurt within 10 days.
  7. Makes 1 quart (four 1-cup servings) of plain, unsweetened, fortified cultured soy yogurt.
  8. Use soy yogurt in dressings, soups, smoothies, marinades, cereals, fruit parfaits, baked goods, or dips.

Notes

If you can’t find cultured plain soy yogurt, use a non-dairy yogurt starter to make your first batch, following package instructions. Many starter products utilize packets (about 1 packet per quart of soymilk) and you can make your first batch in your Instant Pot on the yogurt setting. Reserve ½ cup from the first batch to use in subsequent batches of soy yogurt using this recipe.

This cultured soy yogurt makes a thinner consistency.

Choose fortified soymilk with vitamin D and calcium for a nutrient-rich soy yogurt. The nutritional content of the soy yogurt will vary based on the soymilk you use.
