- 2 tbsp Greek yogurt plain with live active cultures
- 1 tbsp vanilla
Instructions
- Pressure cooker yogurt with yogurt button - Whisk together 2 tbsp of Greek yogurt with 1 cup of your ultra filtered whole milk until smooth. (Fairlife is higher in protein so the yogurt will turn out thicker as you'd see in the stores)

- Close lid but do NOT seal pressure / steam release valve. Press the yogurt button on your pot and set the pressure to normal. Set cook time to 8 hours.
- After this time take out the inside liner from your pressure cooker pot and cover it with plastic wrap. Put this into your refrigerator overnight or for at least 8 hours. Enjoy topped with fresh fruit and/or granola.
- Pressure cooker yogurt without a yogurt button - Use your saute function, normal setting, and add your milk. Have a thermometer handy. Stir intermittently so it doesn't overheat on the bottomTest temperature, you want to heat milk to 180 degrees F.

- Close your lid, keep the steam valve OPEN and allow to sit for 8 hours. Then remove inner pot and let cool to room temperature on the counter.
