Rice Pudding Recipe | How to Make Rice Pudding Recipe

Rice Pudding is a classic, comforting dessert made from rice, milk, sugar, and various flavorings. It’s a versatile dish that can be enjoyed warm or chilled, and can be flavored with spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom, and garnished with fruits, nuts, or raisins.

It’s simple to prepare this creamy, warming Rice Pudding on the stovetop. It’s a warm dish that you can make quickly and is ideal for chilly evenings!

You should definitely try rice pudding if you haven’t before. Warm rice pudding is delicious. It has a tonne of warm flavours from the sugar and cinnamon! Rice pudding can be served cold as a sweet and cooling summer treat as the weather warms up.

Personally, I adore the pudding’s grainy texture thanks to the rice! It will inflate up and become more dessert-like if you cook it slowly. It tastes delicious and has a wonderful texture.

Ingredients

• 2 cups cooked white rice
• 2 cups whole milk
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 tbsp cinnamon
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Put rice, milk, sugar and spices in a heavy-bottomed sauce pot. Bring to a boil, then turn down the heat to a simmer.
2. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes or until the rice is plump and the liquid is reduced.
3. Serve warm, at room temperature or chilled, as you prefer

Tips:

• For a Creamier Texture: Use full-fat milk or a combination of milk and cream.
• Dairy-Free Version: Use coconut milk or almond milk for a dairy-free alternative. Coconut milk will give it a richer, tropical flavor.
• Flavor Variations: You can switch up the flavor by adding orange zest, cardamom, or nutmeg instead of cinnamon.
• Leftovers: Rice pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days. The texture may thicken, so you can stir in a little extra milk before reheating.
• Make It Vegan: Use non-dairy milk (like almond or oat milk) and a plant-based sweetener like maple syrup or coconut sugar.

Healthier Alternatives:

• Sweeteners: Use natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or stevia if you prefer a less refined option.
• Add Fruit: To increase the nutritional value, you can top your rice pudding with fresh fruits like berries, bananas, or apples.

Rice pudding is a nostalgic, satisfying dessert that’s versatile enough to enjoy on its own or as part of a larger meal. It’s simple to prepare, indulgent, and can be customized to your taste preferences!
