what can i substitute for buttermilk in sugar cookies?

Question

i dont have any buttermilk...

Answer 1

1 cup butter milk= 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar plus enough milk to make 1 cup let stand 5 min before using or 1 cup plain yogart

Answer 2

because I use so little buttermilk but do need it from time to time, I just make my own. I'm not sure, but from the cooking magazines I read I think you should add your lemon juice or vinegar to the measuring cup first, 1 tablespoon per cup of buttermilk you need to whatever milk it takes to make 1 cup, which I know is so close to one cup that it really doesn't matter, but still. Stir it in and let it set for a few minutes then continue with your recipe

Answer 3

Here are several substitutions you can try for buttermilk. I've tried the first two and they work great!

Combine one cup of milk plus one tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar, and allow to stand for ten minutes.
OR
Combine one cup of milk plus two teaspoons cream of tartar, and allow to stand for ten minutes.
OR
Combine two parts plain yogurt plus one part milk OR plain, low-fat yogurt OR sour cream OR molasses (in batters that also call for baking soda)

Answer 4

to one cup Milk, add 1 tbs. Vinegar or Lemon juice
