Steps:
- Zest lemons and juice lemons. Set aside. Butter and flour your pan. Melt butter and add to a large mixing bowl. Add sugar and whisk until well incorporated. Add eggs, again whisking to incorporate. Stir in reserved lemon juice and yogurt. Add flour, baking powder, and salt, gently mixing everything together. Stir in vanilla and reserved lemon zest. Add mixture to your prepared pan. Place 1 cup of water and trivet in the Instant Pot®. Make a foil sling by tearing off a 15-inch sheet of aluminum foil and folding it in half two times. This is going to be used to lift the cake in and out of the Instant Pot®. Use the foil sling to lower the cake onto the trivet. Lock the lid making sure the valve is in the sealing position. Set the Instant Pot® to manual, high pressure for 28 minutes. When finished, switch the valve to venting for a quick pressure release. When safe to open, gently remove the cake using the foil sling. Place on rack to cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan to fully cool on a rack. While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and lemon juice. Drizzle over cooled cake and serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right milk: Whole milk produces the thickest and creamiest yogurt, but you can use low-fat or non-fat milk if you prefer. Just keep in mind that the yogurt will be less thick and creamy.
- Use a good quality yogurt starter: The yogurt starter is what will turn the milk into yogurt, so it's important to use a good quality one. You can buy yogurt starter online or at most health food stores.
- Maintain a consistent temperature: The ideal temperature for making yogurt is between 100°F and 110°F. If the temperature is too high, the yogurt will curdle. If the temperature is too low, the yogurt will not thicken properly.
- Be patient: It takes time for yogurt to culture. Don't expect it to be ready in just a few hours. The longer you let it culture, the thicker and more flavorful it will be.
Conclusion:
Making yogurt in an Instant Pot is a simple and easy process. By following these tips, you can make delicious and healthy yogurt at home. You can enjoy it on its own, or use it in smoothies, parfaits, or other recipes. So what are you waiting for? Give it a try today!
