Almond Milk Question

BlessUrHeart29 · November 2013

Hello! I'm newly dairy free (pediatrician suspects my 6 wk old son is MPI) and I had a question about almond milk. Can I just generally substitute it for regular milk in recipes? What about baking? Is there anywhere that I couldn't use it in place of regular milk? And if so, what do you recommend using?

Welcome! I've used almond milk in everything from mashed potatoes to cakes and never had a problem. You just do a straight substitution.

Thanks! Have you ever used it in a bread maker?

No. I don't have a bread maker. Shouldn't make a difference.

Any milk substitution will work in bread maker. I am allergic to milk since birth and substituting milk with any of the alternatives (almond, coconut, rice, flax, etc.) is never an issue. Taste could be different, especially if you are using one with added sugar or flavor.

What about substituting with soy? Are they all equally interchangeable?

I don't know anything about soy but I did use the almond milk in the bread machine today, straight 1:1 substitution, and it was fine.
