🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- First things first, let's prep those bananas! Peel them and slice them into roughly 1-inch thick rounds. Don't stress about perfection here, chunky is fine!
- Next up: the blender action. Combine the sliced bananas, coconut milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a high-powered blender. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. I usually blend in short bursts, scraping down the sides as needed, to get everything incorporated evenly.
- Now, pour the creamy mixture into your yogurt maker jars or a suitable oven-safe dish. Make sure to leave some headspace, as the yogurt will expand a little during fermentation/baking.
- If using a yogurt maker, follow the manufacturer's instructions on how to set it up. Usually, this involves setting the temperature and the fermentation time. I typically use mine for 8-10 hours – you know, overnight!
- For the oven method (if you don’t own a yogurt maker), preheat your oven to the surprisingly low temperature of 170°F (77°C). Place your yogurt mixture in the oven and let it bake for 6-8 hours, or until it's nicely set. You'll know it's ready when it's firm to the touch but still spoonable.
- Once your Coco Loco Yogurt is set, it's time for the fun part – toppings! Get creative! I love adding some fresh berries, a sprinkle of granola, or even a drizzle of extra honey for that extra touch of sweetness.
- Now grab a spoon and dive in! Enjoy your super healthy and delicious Coco Loco Yogurt. It’s the perfect treat for breakfast, a snack, or even a delightful dessert – I mean who doesn’t love a little yogurt in the evening?
📝 Notes
- For a thicker yogurt, use less coconut milk. For a thinner yogurt, add more. It’s all up to your preference!
- Make sure to use ripe bananas – the riper they are, the sweeter the yogurt will be!
- If your yogurt doesn't set properly, it's usually because your yogurt maker or oven temperature wasn't warm enough. Try again with a slightly higher temperature next time
