Ingredients
- 4 cups of whole milk
- 2 tablespoons of plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup of honey
- Optional toppings: fresh fruits, nuts, granola, etc.
Directions
- In a large saucepan, heat the whole milk over medium heat until it reaches a temperature of 180°F. Stir occasionally to prevent the milk from scorching.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and let the milk cool down to 110°F. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the saucepan in a cold water bath.
- Once the milk has cooled down, whisk in the plain Greek yogurt until well combined.
- Cover the saucepan with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and place it in a warm spot for 6-8 hours for the yogurt to ferment. The longer it ferments, the tangier the yogurt will become.
- After the fermentation process, refrigerate the yogurt for at least 2-3 hours to allow it to set and thicken.
- Once the yogurt has set, stir in the honey until it is fully incorporated. Taste and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey if desired.
- Serve the homemade honey Greek yogurt plain or with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruits, nuts, or granola. Enjoy!
