Powdered milk is dehydrated milk ground to a fine powder, used to boost protein in breads or to stand in for liquid milk when reconstituted. To swap powdered for liquid milk, mix about 4 tablespoons of powder with 1 cup of water for a close match in volume and richness. See what 1 tablespoon of powdered milk is in ounces.

Condensed milk is milk with most of its water removed and a heavy dose of added sugar, so it is far thicker and sweeter than regular milk. The two are not a 1:1 swap; for a quick stand-in for condensed milk, gently simmer milk with sugar until reduced and thickened. See what 1 tablespoon of condensed milk is in ounces.

Evaporated milk is unsweetened milk reduced by about 60% in volume, leaving a thicker, richer liquid than regular milk. To use evaporated in place of milk, dilute with an equal part water; to use milk in place of evaporated, gently simmer to reduce by half. See our Evaporated Milk converter.
