Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! Let me introduce you to the friendliest homemade vegan yogurt. There’s no tricky probiotic capsules or fancy heating gadgets required. So, technically, this recipe tastes just like yogurt but, isn’t actually fermented like traditional yogurt. All you do is toss extra-firm silken tofu, date sugar (or powdered sugar), and lemon juice into a blender and blend. That’s it!

I’ve experimented around some with making homemade fermented yogurt. It takes a little bit of patience and practice and super super clean equipment. Once I ended up with pink, curdled coconut yogurt I tried to make in my Instant Pot that was so smelly I couldn’t even put it in the compost bucket! So, while I appreciate the art of homemade yogurt, it’s SO much easier (and cheaper) to whip up fool-proof delicious yogurt in a blender.

What I love about this recipe is that it tastes SO much like traditional yogurt but is dairy and oil free. It’s rich and creamy with just enough sweetness to make you feel like you’re eating something special. On holidays I’ll make my family a yogurt “breakfast bar” where you lay out jars of Tangy Tofu Yogurt with all sorts of fun toppings like granola, berries, chia seed jam and chocolate chips. Everyone loves to create their own parfait because who doesn’t love dessert for breakfast?!
