Has anyone successfully replaced this in recipes?

I was going to try blending corn syrup with rice milk and see what happens.

I have some cookie recipes I need to mess with ;)

Sweetened Condensed Milk Substitute

1 cup powdered milk

1/3 cup boiling water

2/3 cup sugar

3 T. melted margarine

Blend all togeher until smooth. Use in any recipe calling for 1 can of sweetened condensed milk.

Hi, you could try cooking down some almond milk and then add honey. I've cooked the almond milk with a opened vanilla bean then use a thick natural honey.

take care

I haven't tried it, but maybe Vance's Dari Free and coconut oil subbed for the milk and margarine?

I have always subbed with straight soy milk (I so use sweetened, vanilla). No one has ever noticed the difference.

What about coconut milk? I'm sure the thickness won't matter much when xanthan is being used anyway. Plus, if you use sugar (I don't), that also acts as a binder. A little almond butter and water would also work I'd think. I find cookie recipes pretty versatile. I always use water or fruit juice as the main liquid ingredient anyway.

What sort of cookie needs condensed milk? Might that be macaroons?

Very similar to a macaroon, Riceguy. :lol: It has coconut in it and almond extract and sweetened condensed milk. Then you place an almond on the top and drizzle it with chocolate. I have coconut milk in my fridge after my gluten-free|df|sf choco chips get here I can try it! Maybe today! I am hoping...

Thanks everybody!

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I have found that in addition to gluten, I am sensitive to inulin/chicory root fiber. I wondered why I had gastrointestinal symptoms after drinking a Chobani yogurt drink - much like being glutened. Happened at least twice before I figured out that it was that chicory root fiber additive. I do not react to ordinary dairy, yogurt, etc. For the holidays...

      It's great to hear that your gluten-free journey has been going well overall, and it's smart to be a detective when a reaction occurs. Distinguishing between a gluten cross-contamination issue and a reaction to high fiber can be tricky, as symptoms can sometimes overlap.

      Celiac Disease and Skin Disorders: Exploring a Genetic Connection

      This explains a lot. I had a severe leg injury when I was younger. I've had several surgeries. I was super careful, but always got cellulitis. Interesting article. Even when I was gluten free and had surgery, I still got cellulitis.

      Gut Healing After a Celiac Diagnosis: What Science Says About Recovery Time (+Video)

      Good article. Everyone expects healing within a few weeks. I remember not feeling good until 4 months into the gluten free diet. In fact, the first month was horrible. I felt way worse. This is due to a large part of addiction to wheat. It feels like withdrawal symptoms. Your body wants the gluten no matter what. At 4 months, I remember waking up one...

Happened at least twice before I figured out that it was that chicory root fiber additive. I do not react to ordinary dairy, yogurt, etc.  For the holidays, I will only be baking gluten-free treats. I got rid of all gluten-containing flours, mixes and pastas in my kitchen. Much easier to avoid cross-contamination that way!

      It's great to hear that your gluten-free journey has been going well overall, and it's smart to be a detective when a reaction occurs. Distinguishing between a gluten cross-contamination issue and a reaction to high fiber can be tricky, as symptoms can sometimes overlap. The sudden, intense, food poisoning-like hour you experienced does sound more consistent with a specific intolerance or contamination, as a high-fiber reaction typically involves more digestive discomfort like bloating or gas that lasts longer. Since the protein bar was the only new variable, it’s a strong suspect; it's worth checking if it contains ingredients like sugar alcohols (e.g., maltitol, sorbitol) or certain fibers (inulin/chicory root) that are notorious for causing acute digestive upset, even in gluten-free products. For your holiday baking, your plan is solid: bake the gluten-free items first, use entirely separate utensils and pans (not just washed), and consider color-coding tools to avoid mix-ups. Additionally, store your gluten-free flours and ingredients well away from any airborne wheat flour, which can stay in the air for hours and settle on surfaces. Keep listening to your body and introducing new packaged foods one at a time—it’s the best way to navigate and pinpoint triggers on your journey.
