About Rice milk pudding

Rice milk pudding, often referred to as a variation of rice pudding, is a creamy dessert made by simmering rice, rice milk, and sweeteners like sugar or natural alternatives. Popular in many cuisines, especially Middle Eastern, Asian, and European, it is an ideal plant-based alternative to traditional dairy-based puddings. Rich in carbohydrates and relatively low in fat, rice milk pudding is a source of quick energy. Depending on its preparation, it may also contain small amounts of vitamins like B12 and D from fortified rice milk, as well as minerals like calcium and magnesium.
