Replacing bedtime feed?

My dd turned one last week and I think last night might be my last feed. She's been ebf since birth but she's grown increasingly disinterested over the last two months to the point where we only do one feed a day. The one at bed time and the last week she's barely fed for more than 2-3 minutes and she's bitten me nearly every night. I'm now wary and on edge when feeding her and neither of us seem to be getting much out of it anymore.
Anyway I've decided to stop but I'm unsure as to whether I should be replacing her feed with something else. She eats tea at 6-6:30 and then has the bedtime feed at 7:30. Should I be giving her a snack or maybe a cup of cows milk? She's offered water throughout the day but up till now she's never drank cows milk. Only having some on cereal. I just don't want her going to bed hungry. Any suggestions?

I think I switched to milk in cup before bath. And then cuddle and stories to bed. I just thought it weird to have a cup of milk after brushing her teeth.

I would give a cup of milk at some point before teeth brushing
