Sugar Free Vanilla Yogurt
Sugar Free French Vanilla Yogurt
1/2 c. dry milk (if using goat's milk)
a little less than 1/4 c. DaVinci French Vanilla sugar free syrup
1 quart of raw milk warmed to 110*
1 packet yogourmet yogurt starter
Incubate for 6-8 hours and chill.
(Adjust the incubation period to desired tartness. Longer incubation yields a more tart yogurt, not a thicker one. Ask me how I know.
)You can find the sugar free syrup on the coffee aisle at your grocery store. You can also use plain yogurt for the starter. Just make sure that it says it contains live active cultures. I like to use Dannon or Brown Cow brands. This yogurt tastes similar to french vanilla ice cream (only tart). If you don't want a sugar free option then use 1/3 c. of sugar (honey won't work well) and 1 t. of vanilla extract in place of the sugar free syrup. It is wonderful with Ezekiel cereal or granola on top.
