I ran out of powdered milk. What can I use for a substitute?

Very good recipe for cooking and baking substitutions:

You can also use rice, soy or almond milk in place of powdered milk. (09/28/2007)

Depending on the recipe, I have been known to substitute powdered coffee creamer. I wouldn't want to put it on cereal though. (10/01/2007)

My youngest daughter is allergic to dairy and I discovered that a lot of things are fine if I just used water. If it is cake or cookies add a Tbsp. of mayonnaise too. (10/01/2007)

Depends what u need it for. Substitute liquid milk by reducing liquids in a recipe accordingly. Otherwise, creamer could also be use, but as it is an oil product, the nutrition wouldn't be there. Depending on the recipe, a mild juice like apple can be used instead. (10/02/2007)

If you are asked for dry milk for a bread recipe you can use the following substitution:
3 Tbsp dry milk = 1/2 cup+1 Tbsp fresh milk
2 1/2 Tbsp = 1/2 cup
2 Tbsp = 3/8 cup
1 1/2 Tbsp = 5 Tbsp
1 Tbsp = 3 Tbsp
1/2 Tbsp = 2 Tbsp
The milk solids add only colour and a dash of nutrients so you can either sub some of your water for milk or skip it all together without any problems. (09/28/2008)
