One thing every household buys is yogurt. We all have our favourite yogurt varieties and flavours. In my house we use yogurt in so many ways. Which is why I am looking at how to create your own yogurt.
I have owned an EasiYo yogurt maker before, but lost it to a friend. I have missed it ever since, so was very happy to be offered the chance to review again.
The process is so easy to make, and you will never run out of yogurt again.
- Fill the jug up to the half way mark
- Empty your chosen yogurt sachet and put lid on
- Shake until mixed in and then top up with water if needed
- Fill the EasiYo maker above the marker with boiling water
- Seal and leave for 12 hours
It is that simple.
The yogurts also come in a range of flavours from natural Greek yogurt, which is great as we always have this in for cooking or making smoothies with to great flavours including their new plum and vanilla.
You can purchase the sachets easily and in bulk, I currently have in
- Creme Brulee
- Vanilla
- Banana
- Strawberry

What are your favourite yogurt recipes?
I’ve tried various yoghurt makers but EasiYo is by far the easiest and the best. I’d recommend it to anyone with a family that enjoys freshly made yoghurt or yoghurt recipes such as dips. It’s more expensive than the cheap supermarket yoghurts but they’re not real yoghurt so shouldn’t really be compared. I like plain yoghurt served with fresh fruit for breakfast or a light meal.
I do love the EasiYo and so quick and easy to make and agree it is perfect for those with a family. My grandaughters love choosing what flavour yoghurt to have and making it up. Their faces the next morning melts my heart
Something the girls would enjoy – we do love yogurts but never tried making
This is so quick and easy and so many lovely flavours
I’ve always wanted to learn to make my own yoghurt! I am a bit of a yoghurt fiend!
This is so quick and easy, I usually make it in the evening and it is ready the next morning
Yogurt is such an integral part of our cooking and thanks for introducing this awesome product to me. Love the simple steps involved in making yogurt!
I cook a lot with yogurt as well, plus we eat it all the time. Having this is so quick and easy which is another thing I love about it
This is a great recipe to try. I eat yogurt a lot and would like to try making my own and adding my own fruit to the mix.

I have tried so hard to like yoghurt and tried so many different versions but really can’t get into it. But my parents would love this as they use so much yoghurt x
I think it is something you either love or hate. I do get it as it took me a long time to be able to enjoy yoghurt

I love that you can have yogurt in without having to remember to buy it
I love yogurt and I can’t wait to give this a try. I look forward to trying different flavors.
I do love how many flavours there are. I do tend to eat more yogurt in the summer months as opposed to the cooler months. It is my go to with summer fruits
