I just made some fruit loaves. I used warm fresh milk. Just after I put them in the oven, my husband used milk from the carton and realized the milk had 'gone bad'. How is this going to affect my fruit loaves?
Will they be edible?

I don't think you have anything to worry about. It's not "bad", just sour maybe.
By the way my Gram's killer good molasses cookies call for sour milk!! :D

quite a few recipes call for soured milk - taste the breads - there is nothing in them that will harm you - I would expect them to be just fine

I usually sour my milk before baking. It's great for all types of breads. In case you didn't know, milk kept at room temp for 30 mins will grow bad bacteria, don't drink it. I sour milk by adding 1 oz of white vinegar to 7 oz. milk and microwave for 20 seconds.

Just used sour milk. Had you let it go longer, it would've been called sour cream....:)

How do you know when sour cream has gone bad? Does it get sweet again?

Wow, I was alway taught that if the milk taste sour and clabered it is spoiled. So who would want to drink or use this for anything?

Lots of recipes call for "buttermilk" which is milk that you intentionaly sour, so there shouldn't be any problem (imho)
