We bought a yoghurt maker years ago (in Edmonton actually I think!) and use it constantly. My only concern is that it's plastic, and i'm not so into the warm plastic these days...i'd love to be able to pour the cooled milk/bacteria into a glass jar and process that way. <br /><br />Anyways...just curious!Alanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12973710495023457991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-333411191742157651.post-39739487727843865762013-06-05T10:05:07.400-06:002013-06-05T10:05:07.400-06:00The pancakes did stay together very nicely--like a...The pancakes did stay together very nicely--like a normal pancake, even. The almond were pretty finely ground so that probably helped--so it was like little almond granules almost....not so much chunks. And I loved that texture, a soft crunch. :-)Marahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11560618434612554807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-333411191742157651.post-2012759709964851232013-06-05T10:03:32.499-06:002013-06-05T10:03:32.499-06:00So, I can't remember *exactly* what I did, but...So, I can't remember *exactly* what I did, but this should get you close:<br /><br />Here is the ice cream recipe that I used: http://kateshealthycupboard.com/gluten-free-recipes/cinnamon-ice-cream-dairy-free-option/<br /><br />* I didn't use ANY coconut milk--just 2 cups of yogurt (I *think* it was 1.5 C yogurt made from whole milk then 1/2 C yogurt made from whipping cream....? I can't remember! :S. Some sort of 'mostly milk-based, but also a good bit of whipping cream-based yogurt'. <br />* I used ~ 1/3 cup honey for the sweetener<br />* I'm almost positive I only used 1 egg yolk<br />* everything else is pretty much as is (including the melted butter)<br /><br />Now, a good quality plain yogurt will hopefully get you there (rather than making your own), as I found my homemade stuff tasted almost exactly like my Astro Balkan-style yogurt that I usually buy. I suppose the difference is that I also used the whipping-cream yogurt. So if you want to try the whole shabang, here is the yogurt recipe--I usually start fermenting mine in the evening, which will allow me to start using it the 2 mornings later (24 hours fermentation, 8 hours in the fridge)<br />http://btvc.webfactional.com/knowledge_base/detail/yoghurt-how-to-make-with-heating-pad/<br /><br />The instructions are more complicated than those in the book. 1) bring your dairy product to a simmer 2) remove from heat and let cool to room temperature so it doesn't kill your starter bacteria (I put mine in the fridge for a bit) 3) mix 1/4C starter yogurt w/ 1/2C of the cooled milk, then mix that into the whole batch. 4) pour into the container you'll keep it in 5) ferment for 24-29 hours (no longer) at 38-43 degrees C. 6) Carefully put into the fridge for 4-8 hours to cool and set completely.<br /><br />Then make yummy froyo!Marahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11560618434612554807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-333411191742157651.post-83058171711264860892013-06-03T08:51:46.276-06:002013-06-03T08:51:46.276-06:00A faint memory just popped into my brain (many hou...A faint memory just popped into my brain (many hours after having read this post...)....did you mention somewhere that your yogurt can be made to taste like TART frozen yogurt?

I love the idea of leaving some almond chunks in...that sounds fantastic. Did they stay together pretty solidly?Kim O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09493736243622092818noreply@blogger.com
