Coconut-Almond Yogurt [Live Food, Vegan, Paleo, Ketogenic]
- Category: Snack
- Cuisine: Paleo
- Diet: Vegan
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Cup of Raw, Unheated Almonds (soaked for 24 hours in pure water)
- 1 1/2 Cups of Fresh Coconut meat (scraped from the inside of young Thai Coconuts)
- Water from 1 Young Thai Coconut
- 1/2 Tbsp Probiotic Powder (or the contents of 3 probiotic capsules)
Instructions
- First, soak your raw almonds in water for 24 hours. Soaking the nuts is crucial as this will activate the dormant enzymes and release the nutrients.
- Add soaked almonds, young coconut meat, coconut water from 1 coconut, and probiotics to blender and blend until smooth in a high-speed blender (I use a Vita-Mix).
- Next, using a fine-mesh strainer to strain the liquid into a glass bowl. I hold my strainer in one hand and use a spatula in the other to stir and sift the mixture through. This will remove any excess fibers and almond skins and will help you achieve a nice creamy texture.
- Cover your glass bowl with a paper towel or clean dish towel and let sit for at least 3-4 hours. This will allow the probiotics to start to proliferate and break down the yogurt. The longer you let it sit, the more tangy and sour it will be.
