Half and Half Substitute
Making a substitute for half and half is as simple as mixing two everyday ingredients.

Prep Time: 2 minutes

Total Time: 2 minutes

Ingredients:

  • Milk
  • 1 Tbsp butter or margarine, melted

Preparation:

Replace one cup of half and half with 1 tablespoon melted butter, plus enough milk to equal a cup.

Note: This substitute works well in baked goods, soups and other cooked dishes. It will not whip, and therefore should not be used in any recipe that calls for whipping half and half.

It is wonderful to know this tip....., Member Wonder_Y_

Hi, It is wonderful to know this tip when you have to used half and half, and we don't have it in the refrigerator. I made mashed potatoes and I substituted milk and butter instead of half & half, and it worked very well, Thank you.
