How to Make Coconut Yogurt | 3 different ways, Vegan & Dairy-Free
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 тра 2024
- Coconut Yogurt is such a good option for anyone, especially if you are vegan or dairy-free! Fermented foods help to aid digestion, promote healthy elimination, colonize your gut with beneficial bacteria, and the list goes on and on.
Young coconuts are high in MCT’s, and these are fats that are used by your body to produce energy. They are also rich in minerals such as manganese and copper and during the fermentation process the nutrients become even more bioavailable. Also, the sugars are eaten up by the live bacteria during the culturing process and won’t encourage growth of bad bacteria in your gut, which is great news especially for those with compromised immune systems. All in all, it’s a great health food!
I used 1 pack of kefir starter for each of the recipes, which is roughly 2 tsp.
Here is the kefir starter pack I used: bit.ly/2SsXUL8
Coconut opener tool kit: amzn.to/2StcVwF
Good brand for frozen young coconuts: bit.ly/3aTgbI1
Canned coconuts: amzn.to/3aXwOCr
Make sure the temperature of your yogurt is not lower than 80For 26C before you add the culture starter. If it’s too cold, place your container over a warm water bath to warm it up before adding your kefir starter. This will ensure that the microflora wake up quickly and begin to feed on the natural sugar in the coconut. Don’t warm it up past 100F or 37C though because the temperature may kill the microflora.
I keep my yogurt in the oven overnight but you can just leave it on the counter, just cover it with towels so no bacteria can enter and for extra warmth. Keep the room temperature nice and steady and make sure it doesn’t drop below 75 F or 24 C. Let it culture for 24 hours, it can be shorter or longer depending on how tangy and thick you want it to be.
Keep in the fridge for up to 7 days.

Can I use Vegan kefir instead of kefir starter in powder presentation?
Все три рецепта супер просты в приготовлении ,спасибо за рецепт 😋отдаю предпочтение приготовленному йогурту с свежих кокосов 👍

Three ways to make !! Great !! Was that a thermapen thermometer ? Liked the oven reminder !!👍😊 We need to try all 3 !
David Watson yes, thats the thermometer you gave us ☺️ and, the coconut opener kit too 😄 and yes, all 3 are totally different taste but all so good 👌🏻
This is the best yogurt, I could live on it!
I am so glad you like it too!! Its so yummy 😋
That yogurt definitely looks awesome. I would like to try the same using COCOYO living coconut yogurt as a starter, does that work too?
I absolutely live COCOYO! Thats what i buy when i don't make have time to make my own :) i think it will work, you might need to add a few tbsp for a batch. Let me know how it turns out 🥥
This gonna be perfect for my fall cleanse. Please keep making content. The video quality is great and your content is greater.
Hi Stefan, i am so happy you found this video useful! I really appreciate the comment :) new content is coming soon!
This looks amazing! Thank you for the excellent video with all 3 options. Did anyone catch how long she heated the jars for? This was unclear to me. Thanks
Hi there, sorry for the late reply! I just somehow saw this comment.. i boiled them for half a minute, just enough to kill any potential bacteria on the glass :)
Super
Thanks Meryem!
Yine harika 👍

Hello! I have a question. I saw that you use the "kefir starter" to make yogurt? Did you use it for all 3? Can you tell me the exact brand you used? Thank you! I am going to give the 3rd option a try! :)
its the body ecology kefir from donna gates
do you have to use a new kefir starter eatch time you mack it, our you can save one spon of the previous iogurt? like villi, caspian, and other dairy fermented iogurtes....
Hi Andreia :) That's what I do sometimes, it's a good idea and much more economical this way! However, If your yogurt is on the verge of going bad, it's best to make from fresh starter. Hope this helps.
@@HolisticLongevity ok, maybe if i do the iogurte every other day, and mybe use, at least One time its better than nothing
Hello! Thanks for the video. Is it possible to find some lactose-free probiotic capsules? I can't find it in Turkey.
Hi Özge! They sell some here in the states, the one i like is from Ora Organics and its called “trust your gut” maybe you could ship it from Amazon to Turkey? My husband is from Izmir 😊 where are you from?
@@HolisticLongevity Thank you! I just have learned that I have lactose intolerance. I'll try to make my own coconut yogurt. I'm from Izmir (Balçova) too. 😊
Wow so cool ☺️ small world! He is from Göztepe. I too have a small lactose intolerance.. not to everything though, for example i found butter or cheeses like mozzarella or parmesan to be totally fine for me. The lactobacillus bacteria in probiotics should not cause a problem for you though. They actually help the body metabolize and break down lactose in dairy, so if you are not vegan you should be just fine with regular probiotics.
Thanks for the video, but what to use instead of kefir?
You can use probiotic capsules or even a scoop of store bough coconut yogurt to jump start the fermentation process 👍🏻
I have a question. In case we use young coconut, Do we need to warm up coconut water before blending? Or just blending mix and stir with kefir start powder?
Yes, i recommend warming up to the same exact temp as the coconut flesh 👍🏻
Yes we want to know how to make home made granola! Please do upload a video for us loved the coconut yoghurt video 😍
Hi Trish 🙂 thanks so much for your comment! I made a granola video, hope you like it:

Thanx for d vedio....
How about d taste?
Hi there :) thank you! I personally prefer the taste of 2nd one the most (frozen flesh of young coconut). But honestly, they are all great. The first one taste more sweet, the last one is a bit more fatty and buttery. Hope you try ;)
@@HolisticLongevity thank u
Hello,
Thank you for this detailed video.
My name is Dana and I live in Timisoara, Romania.
I have tried several times to make the no 3 version of coconut yogurt, because I can't find fresh coconut here.
I used different brands of organic coconut milk and different probiotics and vegan yogurt ferment. I let them ferment 24h, at 78-84Fahrenheit. Each time there was a liquid-separation during fermentation. I mix gently and put the 2 jars in the fridge ( temperature: 41F).
The fat became solid and form a kind of crust on top. Underneath, there was a sour, runny liquid with the same consistence as milk.
Do you have any advice for me? - what am I doing wrong?
Thank you,
Dana
Hi Dana, thank you so much for reaching out 🙂 i live in Austin TX but from Ukraine 🇺🇦 originally 👋 from what i'm reading you are doing everything right but maybe its just a tad too cold and thats why coconut milk separates? It has happened to me before until i started wrapping up the jars with warm towels and keeping them inside picnic basket for extra insulation. It can also be the brand of coconut milk itself. Try finding real Thai coconut milk if you can without any additives or emulsifiers. Finally, you might look into buying a yoghurt maker, there are many affordable ones on the market now. That way you have the control over the exact temperature you need. I invested in one few months ago and its such a game changer, now that its so cold here it makes everything so much easier. I just keep the glass jars over warm water bath inside the yogurt maker and the yoghurt turns out even more fluffy and light. I really hope this helps somehow 🙏🏻😊
@@HolisticLongevity Thank you very much 🤗. I'll try again and keep them warmer this time.
@@danamosanu9961
That’s what happened to me when I fermented using hemp seeds; after 24 hours it looked great, but I left it longer and it turned, fast …….
Something I learned too is about the type of probiotic used; a video on fermentation said not to use prebiotics in probiotics, it can create mold, or ones which have expired; so many probiotics with all kinds of additives and extra things….
I’m going to get several different types and try an experiment; I’m interested in seeing the significance in the different strains ………
Awesome please send home made granola recipe
Yes absolutely! Here is the granola recipe: ua-cam.com/video/Y_v8w9o9r9I/v-deo.htmlsi=_joyh55mW7u858E3
How do you store it, how long does one batch last?
Up to 7 days in the fridge!
Is it possible to make coconut milk yogurt without the probiotic starters? Say with just lemon juice or chilli heads?
Hi there! No its not unfortunately, it needs to be probiotic.
Could you please tell me the exact brand of probiotics that you used for the yogurt. I see that the label said "kefir" ... Does it still work for yogurt? (I have never made yogurt before) Thank you!
Hi there :) yes you can use it for kefir or yogurt, its from Body Ecology Diet. I mention it briefly at 3:13 I also provided the links to everything i used for the video in the description box below the video. Alternatively, you could also use some probiotic capsules to culture your yogurt, hope this helps 🙂
@@HolisticLongevity thank you!
Absolutely!! Sorry for late reply, just saw your other comment.
Can I use a juicer instead of blender? Or the coconut meat plays an important role in there?
Hi :) without coconut meat it will be more of a coconut milk rather than coconut yogurt. In that case you could make coconut kefir, but if you are looking for a thicker consistency like in real yogurt, definitely utilize the meat!
Did you put the yogurts into a prewarmed oven? I’ve just put mine on a sunny window sill
Hi there! I didnt preheat it, i just put it there because temp is more stable, no ac blowing etc. :)
What are you doing with the milk? Are you heating it to a specific temperature as you do with regular milk yogurt? And then cooling it to a specific temperature for adding the starter and fermenting it? (I do regular milk at about 190°, then down to 110-115°. Does coconut milk work the same way?) Can I use the previous batch's yogurt as starter for the next, or does it have to be a purchased starter? Thanks.
Hi there, i just saw your message, apologies for responding so late! I make sure the yogurt if at 80F (the blending actually warms it up) and if its too cold, you can place it in a glass jar over a warm water bath to warm it up. I don't heat it directly in the stove. I also have detailed description below the video, hope this helps :)
@@HolisticLongevity Thanks so much, very helpful.
@@jvallas i'm so glad!! 🙂
nice tutorial!
you are very brave sticking your finger into the blender still on the engine!
You know what, you are so right! Probably not the smartest move ☺️
Olá,eu faço iogurte de Coco,mas nunca vi esse tipo de coco,eu só encontro os castanhos escuros com pêlo,aonde encontrar esse tipo de coco em Portugal,thank you
Olá! Obrigado pela sua pergunta :) Normalmente, os cocos marrons estão mais disponíveis em todo o mundo, mas os cocos jovens são mais difíceis de encontrar. Você pode encontrar polpa de coco jovem e fresco no freezer. Será a coisa mais próxima da coisa nova. Verifiquei o Continente online e parece que tens razão e só tem castanhos, mas dá uma vista de olhos na secção de congeladores. Boa sorte!! 🇵🇹
can i use a spoon of a dairy yogurt as my starter?
Yes you can do that! I've done it that way before and it worked :)
Thank you for the video, i made yogurt from fressh coconut meat but i found the end product to be grainy no matter how long i blended and i made sure to remove the brown bits. Do you know what caused this or how to avoid it?
Hi there :) thanks for your question! So, i used to make it with my old blender and had the same issue. I had ninja blender and it just wasn’t as powerful as vitamix so i had grainy yogurt too. Could that be it? You can run it through a tight mesh nut milk bag or cheese cloth to catch the grainy bits before adding the cultures. I hope this helps ;)
A food processor might be better
Hello I tried your first recipe using fresh young coconut.. is it normal for it to look bubbly? Like it expand so much and has so much gas ? It is been 12 hours
Yes its normal!
Can we use the Liquid Kefir we get in dairy? to start the culture.
Hi there! So sorry for the late reply, yes you absolutely can do this!
So IF you are using a Kefir starter is it still considered yogurt ?
Hi Roberto :) i think so, it has yogurt-like texture. Many people make yogurt with probiotic capsules and it has pretty much the same cultures as this kefir starter.
Do you refrigerate after the yogurt is done?
Yes absolutely! You can keep it refrigerated for up to 7 days, mine never lasts that long though :)
@@HolisticLongevity thanks 😊
👏👏👏👌
:)))
I wish youd shown how raw one came out versus the frozen or canned
You might have skipped the beginning, i showed all 3 yogurts and the textures. See below 👇🏼
Fresh coconut - 0:14
Frozen Coconut - 0:19
Canned Coconut - 0:24
Granola please!!
Hi 🤗 here is granola video 👇🏻

So you can’t use mature brown coconuts?
Hi Avena, thanks for your question. Mature (brown) coconuts are not great for yogurt, they are very dry. Yogurt will not be smooth and will have chunks in them no matter how good of a blender it is. I usually use them to make coconut milk since all the pulp is strained. Young coconuts are also more superior nutritionally. Hope this helps 🙂
@@HolisticLongevity Yes very helpful, thank you.
your video is the best but what about we don't have that fermentation powder ?
Hi 🙂 thank you so much! Powder is best because it has some powerful probiotic strains for healthy gut. But, you can always use a few tablespoons of store bought coconut or dairy yogurt in your batch, that would be a good alternative.
Does it freeze?
Hi Madeline, thats a good question! I never tried freezing it but will definitely try it and report back. Or if you end up doing it sooner than me, let me know how it goes. Thank you 🙂
Can I use lemon
Hi Benedicta! No, i would not recommend lemons, the acid will create a reaction and it will start separating and splitting. Thanks for your question :)
Can you say how much yogurt turn out from one young coconut? 😊
Hi Maria 🙂 i’d say from 1 medium sized coconut you’d get about 3/4 of a cup of yogurt. I used 3 coconut for this recipe and got a little less than 3 cups. Thanks for asking ;)
Please help, my coconut yogurt is separating when incubating, why is this happen?? And is this normal???
Hi there! Its hard to tell why exactly, but it might be that you added the cultures when it was too warm? It should be ok if that's the case. It also varies greatly depending on what kind of coconut product you used. For example certain canned coconut cream/milk brands use different kinds if emulsifiers and thickeners that can case the separation and the overall look to be different. Hope this helps, let me know how it turns out.
Granola recipe please
Hi there :) Yes i made it a while back, here s the granola recipe: ua-cam.com/video/Y_v8w9o9r9I/v-deo.htmlsi=uRBbrtvYiS2qLr9K

You didnt boil the cocount milk ? Fermentation happens without boiling?
If that we can even ferment cow milk without boiing? Just by putting on warm water bath
Hi there! No i didn't boil coconut milk as it will destroy some if the nutrients. The reason we boil dairy milk is to kill any potential bacteria, like salmonella etc. with coconuts we don't need to do it, water bath is good for that 😊👍🏻
I didn't fine the powder you add😢
You can try emptying a probiotic capsule into it 👍🏻
Hi. Where are you from?

I understand it by youre type of talking. (Nothing wrong there, you speak wery rich and clean. I just hear a little different (more soft) pronunciations which is more typical for slavs) and than i read youre name what is more typical for nashih ")
You have allergy for lactose?
@@iljavoronin163 i completely understand what you mean, i usually pick up on the tiniest accents too and can pretty much tell who is from Eastern Europe. So, I’ve been a holistic health coach for many years and in my experience, most people are better off without most dairy products. There are some exceptions, like butter or certain types of cheeses (like Parmigiano Reggiano which is virtually lactose free) but yea, i try to stay away. On my channel though i want to focus more on promoting high quality ingredients and body & food positivity rather than fear, thanks for your comment :)
Do one on Soy milk
Thanks so much for suggestion, i'll experiment with it!
24hrs inside the warm oven ? Am I RIGHT?
Ho there! No, you actually put in a cold oven, the reason is because the temperature there is more stable versus in the house with ac coming in and out. Hope this helps :)
Why do not you use coconut with fiber? It produces more coconut milk.
Hi there :) i do use coconut with fiber, all 3 versions of coconut yogurt i made has fiber in it. The only time i’d take fiber out is when i make coconut milk.
Why didnt you show the results of the yogurts?
You might have skipped the beginning, i showed all 3 yogurts and the textures. See below 👇🏼

You didn't say the process,crime in heat and what powder you add to the last version.... Very disappointed 😞☹️
This video took some effort and time to record, i'm sorry to hear you are disappointed. I used the same culture starter and process for all 3 yogurts, i mentioned starter in the beginning at minute 3:12 and talked about alternatives as well. You might have skipped the beginning of the video that goes through process, temperatures, etc. Everything is also listed in the description box below the video.
Sorry. The background music. I can't actually make out your words. WHY, WHY, WHY do you do this?
