What Is The Ratio To Substitute Rice Milk For Soy Milk?
Posted by: Alan in Milk Allergies, tags: Milk, Ratio, Rice, Substitute, What
My son has a dairy and a soy allergy, so I can’t use dairy milk or soy milk (or nut milks!). Almost every time I bake something and substitute rice milk for soy or dairy, the batter is very thick. Does anyone know the appropriate ration for substituting rice milk for soy or dairy when baking? Thanks!

You can use Hemp Milk or Oat Milk or as you noted Rice Milk. By the way Hemp Milk has the added benefit of an exceptionally high protein profile and it also contains the Omegas -3-6-9!
If you find the batter to be too thick simply add more liquid in increments of a Tbs. at a time until you reach the desired consistency. Remember that humidity has an impact on the moisture content of dry ingredients so some days you may need more and other days less liquid.
FYI there is a wonderful bi-monthly magazine called Living Without which focuses on food sensitivities, allergies and intolerances. They also have a website. It offers excellent information and recipes. I hope that helps.

Since they both have 12g sugars per cup (at leat the ones I use) I use equal portions to start and then add extra liquid (water) a tablespoon at a time.
