Have you used alternatives to cow's milk in a recipe?

Well…water? For breads. The bread isn’t as rich, but it’s OK. I’m trying to think of what other uses I’d have for milk in a recipe.

I drink and like most of the milk alternatives, such as soy, almond and rice, but I can’t even think of a recipe that uses regular milk, so I haven’t tried any alternatives.

The only recipe that I make that calls for milk is pumpkin pie and that is the sweetened condensed, or evaporated milk. I have not seen any alternative milk products for that.

I have friends who use almond milk in fruit shakes.

I often use ½ milk, ¼ almond milk, ¼ water when I eat cereal. I prefer the taste of straight milk (I usually use skim) but I try to keep my dairy intake down. The sweeter the cereal the less I miss the cow’s milk.

My sister is vegan so she uses milk alternatives in recipes, but I don’t think she uses a lot of “milk” anyway, so I don’t know a specific example to give you. Whenever I spend time with her I’ve only noticed her use “milk” with cereal, and she doesn’t eat cereal a lot.

I’m pretty sure Babycakes’ frosting recipe is made with soy milk. Babycakes has some of the best dairy free dessert recipes by far.

Chef used breast milk from his wife one time, he was fired of course & made to do the walk of shame with the entire household chanting “tit” as he left the property.

I’m a real coconuts kinda cook and milk them for all they’re worth.

Every mammal’s secretion has a distinctive taste for you to enjoy.

And you could try soy milk.

Sometimes I use cream instead.

Just add water.

Cream is a cow’s milk product. It’s super yummy. It’s what makes unprocessed cow’s milk so delicious.
