What can I use in a bread recipe instead of dry powdered milk?
One ingredient in my bread recipe is dry powered milk. I don't have any - can I replace it with something else?

I followed the recipe for my bread MACHINE AND HAD NO POWDERED MILK ALSO, SO I substituted the same amount of powdered milk with the same amount of half and half. and it was perfect.

You can use fresh or canned milk (back off on equivalent amounts of water) but you will need to be sure to start the bread machine immediately to avoid spoilage of the milk.
Bread machines have you layer the dry ingredients on top of the water then flour, so the milk or yeast doesnt' get wet until you are ready to start. As long as you are ready to start the machine asap, you can use liquid milk.

No. Cardinal rule in the kitchen ...... do not change the ingredients. If you do, be prepared for disappointment.
If you must, consider how much of the other liquids you have to "reduce" to make up for the real milk. If no other liquids are being used you must then decide on the quantity of eggs or butter or other non-dry items.
Bottom line. Stick with the recipe. How far is the grocery store? 1 day's drive? I think not. Go to the store and get the dry milk. Next time, don't start until all the ingredients are present.

Is it a dessert bread?
I replace dried milk, condensed milk, and other binders with sugar-free bake and serve pudding mix. Not only does it avoid the dairy, but a few hundred calories as well.
See the link below for an example.

Technically you don't need milk in the recipe at all. You can use regular milk if wanted ad replace the water with it. Or you can try using non-dairy coffee creamer. It gives the taste without the milk. My mother used it when I was younger as my brother was lactose intolerant.
