Expert Tips
Whole milk (3.25% fat) is the standard for most baking recipes. Do not substitute skim milk without expecting texture changes.
Room temperature milk incorporates better into batters than cold milk, especially when creaming butter.
Milk adds protein, sugar (lactose), and fat to baked goods - all of which affect browning and tenderness.
