1/2 cup non-dairy milk

RECIPE NOTES
Use short-grain brown rice for a loaf that holds its shape the best. You can quickly make bread crumbs in a blender or food processor. If you have a large crockpot (or slow cooker) you can cook 1/2 the recipe packed into a bread pan on high for 4 to 5 1/2 hours. Just put a couple of jar rings under the pan for air circulation and cover the loaf tightly with aluminum foil.
