Pour 4 cups of whole milk into a large saucepan and heat over medium heat until it reaches 180°F (82°C). Stir occasionally to prevent it from scorching.
Once the milk reaches 180°F, remove it from the heat and let it cool to 110°F (43°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accuracy.
While the milk is cooling, dissolve 1 tablespoon of unflavored gelatin in 0.25 cup of water in a separate bowl. Set aside.
Once the milk has cooled to 110°F, stir in 0.5 cup of plain yogurt with live cultures until fully incorporated.
Add the dissolved gelatin to the milk and yogurt mixture, stirring constantly until well mixed.
Pour the mixture into a clean glass or ceramic container. Cover with a clean cloth or a plastic wrap loosely.
Place the container in a warm environment where it can maintain a temperature of around 110°F (43°C) for 8 to 12 hours. You can use a yogurt maker, an oven with the light on, or a cooler filled with warm water.
After the incubation time, the yogurt should be thick and tangy. Taste it to assure firmness and tanginess to your liking, then refrigerate it for at least 4 hours before serving.
Serve the homemade keto yogurt plain or with toppings suitable for the keto diet, such as berries or nuts.
