Easy Instant Pot Yogurt

Easy Instant Pot Yogurt Recipe

This is a delicious and easy recipe for Yogurt made in the instapot. I was a little afraid of making yogurt but this method is easy and foolproof. This recipe makes a nice size batch. There are so many ways to use this. I put a handful of mini dark chocolate chips and cut strawberries to make a nice treat. You can use it as a base for dressing as well.
