Question by dancing_daisy17: Is there a non-dairy substitute for evaporated milk?
My mom is lactose intolerant but she loves pumpkin pie. Can I just use goat’s milk or will the recipe turn out differently?

You can make it from soy or rice milk. Here are three recipes:
Sweetened Condensed ‘Milk and Evaporated ‘Milk
Condensed Soymilk or Rice Milk I (Quick Method)
Prepare 2 cups soymilk or rice milk made from powdered mix, using triple the powder called for.
Add 3/4 cup sugar or equivalent.
Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved.
Add vanilla to taste, and a pinch of salt.
Cool.
Store in jar in fridge.
For Evaporated ‘Milk: Use only double the powder. Omit sugar.

Condensed Soymilk or Rice Milk II (Slow-Cook Method)
Put 3 cups liquid soymilk or rice milk in a saucepan.
Add 1/2 cup sugar or equivalent.
Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until volume is reduced to 1 cup.
Add vanilla to taste, and a pinch of salt.
Cool.
Store in jar in fridge.
For Evaporated ‘Milk: Cook until volume is reduced to 1 & 1/2 cups. Omit sugar.

Condensed Soymilk or Rice Milk III (Semi-quick Method)

1 cup powdered soymilk or rice milk — do not pack down!
3 Tbsp melted margarine
2/3 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Goat’s milk is still dairy and contains lactose. If your mom needs to be lactose or casein free, you have to look at either soy milk, rice milk, almond milk, hemp milk or a product called Dari-Free powder. Since you are looking for a substitute for evaporated milk, then using any of the milks listed above will make your recipe a little on the watery/weak side. You can use the above milks, but you have to also add a thickener to them like perhaps a cornstarch, potato starch or tapioca starch.
What I do is use the Dari-Free powder and add extra to make the non-dairy milk thicker. Evaporated milk has 60% of its liquid removed, so you have to do the same with whatever substitute you use. With the dari-free powder, the recipe calls for a heaping tablespoon to 1 cup of water. I use 2 heaping tablespoons and it gets it pretty close to the consistency of evaporated milk. If you would use rice milk or soy milk, then you need to heat it some and add a tablespoon or more of cornstarch and stir to thicken till it reached the right consistency. Believe me, it is easier to go the Dari-free way. LOL You can pick this up at most health food stores. Hope this helps!
