How to Make Homemade Coconut Milk Yogurt 

The recipe works. It took about 18 hrs for my yogurt to get tangy when left out on the counter, overnight. The brand I used ("Native", green can) got very thick when refrigerated (if anyone has every tried Siggy's Triple Cream yogurt - it's as thick as that). Consistency was little grainy but, overall, a perfect substitute for dairy yogurt. I tried another RU-vidr's recipe for coconut which required more steps and arrowroot flower that did not turn out well. Joy's recipe is fast and I got the consistency I needed.

i am for ever grateful to all the you tubers who put out videos such as this to help those of us who suffer from food problems, in order to cope in this world. God bless you all

For those that are wondering, the shelf life of this coconut yogurt is 7-10 days in the fridge.

When you take the coconut milk out thw fridge, flip the can upside down before you open it. The water will on the top and you can just pour it out

Thanks for the recipe. You'd better use a wooden spoon as probiotics could react at the touch of metal. The same goes for dairy yogurt, you can easily see it when the left over yogurt gets watery.

Full fat coconut milk and cream Fridge 2 cans in a Clean bowl 🍚 Probiotics x4 Leave overnight

THIS! I have been searching all over for exact this type of coconut yogurt, because I eat entirely waaaay too much CoYo & the price is stacking up. 😂 Thank you SO MUCH for this!!! ❤

all in life comes to me with joy ease and glory

i love coconut yogurt

I’ve been spending so much on GTS raw coconut yogurt. So excited to try this 🙏

Omg this looks so delicious! I’m going to make this had no idea it was so simple! 😻😻😻😻

Thank you! Looking very forward to trying this, and thanks too for answering the reasonable and polite :) questions posed in comments. That was also very helpful and appreciated!

I'm so excited this actually works!! Tastes SOOOO yummy :P I'm dairy, sweetener and gluten free and this just hits all the marks. How can I get the fat to thicken more when it comes out of the fridge? I got about a half yield of what the recipe shows. I used Organic, unsweet, full fat coconut milk from a can (does contain Guar Gum). Thanks!!

Open the cold cans from the bottom and you can pour off the water, then scoop out the cream. Makes it easier to not lose any cream.

The moment you screamed "Yayee!!" I subscribed lol

Amazing! thank you!

You can also use a spoonful of the yoghurt to set the next batch of yoghurt...no need to add another round of probiotics. In India we set yoghurt every day from the culture of the previous day's batch. 😀

You presented this so well. You covered every detail. I really like the idea of placing it in the oven. Love your energy!

Hello I just discovered your channel few days ago. I super love your program. Keep it up. God bless you. Katherine

I bought probiotics not this brand, some other video recommended brand, and I got sick every time I made it with those. Can’t remember the brand now, so had to throw away expensive caps of probs. Store bought one when used as starter worked for me. Thank you for sharing.

THANK YOU for this!!! I've got a very sensitive stomach and I was just looking for ways to like yogurt without dairy and here is it!

Super fantastic!! Thank you! I will try it , it’s the easiest yogurt recipe I have seen! Can’t wait!!

Been making coconut yogurt 48 years ...a gallon every few days.

Gotta make this. Thank you. I can’t digest milk products so will definitely make this

All coconuts are organic so don't be fooled with the word Organic. I am talking about fresh coconut. Coconut grow on very tall trees and the coconut water and flesh is found in the hard shell and covered with a thick husk. It's not easy to get it out. I used a machete to crack it open but these days I use a chopper.

Your hair is amazing!!!!

I just ordered the ingredients from Amazon!

Very fast and simple. Thank you I must say your hair shows you are very healthy ! Blessings

The recipe I've been waiting for. For years I wanted a recipe for making my own yogurt. I had no idea it was this easy. Thank you so much.

Great presentation. Yogurt looks yummy!

Is there any difference between using tined coconut milk or coconut cream to make the yoghart ?

Looks delicious

I love your hair so much. XD And your recipe!

Awesome Video. I've been struggling trying to lose weight eating Vegan. My doctor told me he wants me to start eating yogurt everyday. So, How Glad Was I To Find This Health-Minded Video Tutorial. I'm excited to start making my own Coconut Milk Yogurt. Breakfast will now be both Fun, Healthy, and Appetizing Thanks So Much!

I like that it’s vegan free and gluten free and everything! Cause I can’t have any dairy

You can buy coconut cream in a can, I use all the time in my coffee.

Is it possible to take a tsp of the older yoghurt to ferment a 2nd new yoghurt as is done with milk-derived yoghurt when making continuously ? To avoid using new probiotic capsules each time?

Cheers bella - so easy - will do soon!!!

I am so excited to learn how to make my own yogurt....just learned almond and coconut milk! Thank you! ❤️

What a great recipe! Thanks so much will try this weekend!!!!

I tried this recipe and twice come on watery like kefir don't know why.

You are an awesome cook!

You are simple and beautiful. I very rarely post a comment but you and your video is worth it. From now on i will make my own gfv coconut yogurt. Yay!😊 Thanks for the recipe.

Thanks for the recipe I will try it out!

Its expensive and always has cornstarsh in. Thiswis great.

8 oz cup coconut milk, cocoa mix, stir. let set in fridge for 2 hours.

Um, just saying, I don't think any capsules have plastic in them. They are just either vegan or not vegan. If they are not then they are made out of gelatin. If they are vegan they are made out of vegetable glycerin.... not plastic

Can you use Natives “simple” line of coconut milk that contains no guar gum? Just coconut cream and water? Great video and love your hairstyle!

Good day: found another hot health nut to stalk! I have been missing the lack of Chobani coconut greek yogurt stocked in the grocery (their best flavor along with lime). I did not think it was so easy to make. Also add coconut flakes, coconut sugar, etc, to this. I have been experiencing stomach problems too so I might get some of these probiotics (telling this is not in Google dictionary). They have one with 15 billion and other with 50 billion, and women's stuff which I do not need. Not sure of the difference other than strength?

IF YOU OPEN THE CAN FROM THE OTHER END, you can pour off the liquid easily and all that's left is the solid.

omg your hair!!! ما شاء الله تبارك الله!!!

Can't wait to make it with tropical fruit

So awesome! I just recently had to go Paleo due to being diagnosed with Celiac disease and another GI.

I absolutely love this. I’m so going to try this since I love love lovvvvvvveeee yogurt and coconut and I’m lactose intolerant this is perfect. I spent so much money on coconut non dairy yogurt so delicious brand I love it but they’re too expensive... I’m so going to try this. My husband is a vegan so this is just perfect for the both of us... thank you for sharing. I just liked👍🏻😉 and subscribed to your channel... pls keep them coming...

I often wonder how does the probiotics thrive in coconut milk since it contains very little sugar.

Obsessed with your videos! Thank you.

It’s important to use a wooden or plastic spoon when mixing in probiotic. Metal interferes with probiotic

I love this. I will make it soon ! THANK YOU !!

Thank u love coconut 👍🏼

Can I use a small amount of Greek yoghurt instead of the probiotic

Can you use freshly squeezed coconut milk?

Thank you for sharing this awesome recipe and video! I didn’t know it was so easy! To be able to get that tang is so cool!

Yay! I was just looking for a yogurt substitute! Can't wait to try this :)

Great video!

How many days does the yoghurt last?

Your hair is marvelous!

How do you make your own granola?

Thank you so much Joy for finding and sharing amazing healthy video. 👍 Although I am still in search of finding a natural way of converting homemade coconut milk into yogurt

That's coconut cream not milk

Oh Lord! Im so glad I have find your channel. Tks for share the recipe with us 😗

I loved your coconut yogurt delicius❤❤❤

Thanku so much...i am gonna try this

4 capsules (60 billion) to 2 cups of coconut fat

I'm weary of the tin canned coconut. Is there a brand that comes with coconut milk in glass bottles?

@ Joyous Health hi there! Where can I purchase the probiotics capsules? I live in Hawaii, would that be at Target? Or Down to Earth Organic Store, help. Aloha! Mahalo!🌺🌺🌺

This is the best

You should be able to seed some of the first batch of yogurt into a new batch, the probiotics will continue to work it will save having to use the capsules every time, I have done this making normal yogurt and Kefir many times, though I havnt tried it with coconut yet

hey joy another fabulous video thanks will be making this as I love greek style yogurt

Dur urrrr ra Whats the brand of coconut Milk that you are using. Is it a secret?

Thank you i must try this.

Super charming and great on camera. Can’t wait to try this!

I am so pleased to find a recipe that does not call for me hunting around for fresh green coconuts. They are impossible to come by, and I have loads of tins of coconut cream and coconut milk. So this recipe suits me fine. Do you not need to put the yoghurt in a slightly warmer environment? Or is just leaving it to sit at room temperature in your oven (which was never switched on to warm it slightly), OK?

Love it!!

"Joy, "why haven't I been doing this forever"! Seriously though, Thank you very much for this recipe and I ordered everything that you demonstrated. I even found organic, gluten free, gum free and sugar-free coconut cream and then I bought the advanced gut health/probiotic with 50 billion CFU made by genuine health and I am excited and really looking forward to making this fantastic coconut yogurt. Due to health reasons I had to go vegan and on a special diet which does not allow me to have any kind of sugar, dairy or eggs. Bummer! I really liked eggs and I've always included yogurt in my daily diet for acidophilus, others and just a balanced gut. One day when I was staying in Ventura California, I went to a Vons grocery store and found the most delicious coconut yogurt made by a company called "Cocojune" but very expensive and it was of course gum, gluten and sugar free, but it cost $9.85 per carton, but nevertheless since I can't have dairy anymore, I bought several of them and brought them back home and within a couple weeks they were all gone. Finding your video within this timeframe was perfect and so if your yogurt is as delicious as you make it sound, this will be my forever yogurt👍👍. Thanks again!

the probiotics can you please tell me where to get those from the same ones that you got please you need to let me know where to get the probiotics from please get back to me thank you

I’ve never tried coconut yoghurt before. And actually the chilled coconut milk already looks like yoghurt. What’s the difference? Maybe just a little bit tangy?

thank you dear

Can't wait to make this! Thank you for sharing. Is there a reason you can't show the coconut milk you used?

Hi Joy! Thanks for another awesome and easy recipe. You are constantly inspiring me! My kitchen (including the oven) is quite cold, so I followed your instructions and then put 2 open sterilized jars in my Instapot on the yogurt settting and it doesn't seem to have worked out. :( I have looked at the comments and I did use the right kind of probiotics. Hope this isn't an epic fail for me. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? :) Sorry I won't be able to go to your event at Ambrosia on April 3rd. Hoping you can make it to either Avenue Road or Thornhill sometime soon. I have been following you since the beginning and would love to meet you one day.

lol I gave you a thumbs up 👍 and a like even before video ended...actually at the 10sec mark I ⏸ed then typed this 😄...cant go wrong with that title and me since I am lactose intolerant.

That would be good with some fresh pineapple!

Please give me some knowledge. Why don't you open the other side of the can and pour out the coconut water?

Omg i did it and it's amazing!

Love your book is it keto friendly?

LOVELY VIDEO, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. GREETINGS FROM ACCRA, GHANA, WEST AFRICA

Beautiful

Thank you 😁❤

I think it will be eaten at our house in a couple of days

Thanks for posting this video. I made my first batch last week. Used 60% coconut milk, refrigerated it so it was quite thick. I used two probiotic capsules and left it for two days in the cupboard (approx temp 25 celcius). I turned out nicely. But then after putting it into the fridge, it became clumpy. I expected it to become thicker in the fridge because coconut tends to solidify when it cools, but the clumpiness is not as nice to eat as smooth coconut yogurt. Do you have any suggestions to correct this next time?

I know only from watching RU-vid videos on how to make yogurt, but most use a temperature controlled machine like yogurt machine. You just put yours in an oven that's turned off. How can you be certain that your bacteria has fermented? And what kind of probiotic bacteria strain are you making and why that particular strain?
