QuestionHow do I make whole milk from 2% milk?Drew Hawkins1Community AnswerBecause 2% milk has already had most of the milk fat removed, you can't turn it back into whole milk. However, you can add heavy cream to 2% to increase the fat content and make it closer to whole milk. For example, you can add 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) to 1 cup (236.6 milliliters) of 2% milk to get roughly the same fat content as whole milk.
