Ask Sarah Q: What Should I Use When I'm Out of Whole Milk? Not everyone keeps whole milk on hand, but many recipes call for the ingredient. To solve this issue, a smart baker friend of mine shared a tip with me: Keep a can of evaporated milk on hand. The shelf life is one year! Thankfully, there are multiple substitutes for whole milk to choose from when you're short. 1% Milk: Use the same amount of milk as called for in the recipe, plus 1 tsp. cooled melted butter per cup. 2% Milk: This is a direct substitute, so use the same amount of milk as called for in the recipe. Half-and-Half: Use three parts half-and-half and one part water or skim milk to equal the amount of milk called for in the recipe. Heavy Cream: Use half heavy cream and half water or skim milk to equal the amount of milk called for in the recipe. Non-dairy Milk: This, which includes soy milk, nut milks, etc., is also a direct substitute. Evaporated Milk: Use half evaporated milk and half water to equal the amount of milk called for in the recipe.
