Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Arborio rice
- 4 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Water
- 0.3333 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional)
- 0.25 cup Chopped nuts or fresh fruit (optional topping)
Instructions
In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the Arborio rice, whole milk, water, and salt. Stir to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom.
Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking the rice, stirring occasionally, for about 25-30 minutes. The mixture should thicken as the rice absorbs the liquid.
Once the rice is tender and creamy, stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and unsalted butter. Mix until fully combined, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
If desired, sprinkle ground cinnamon into the creamed rice and stir well to incorporate.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the creamed rice sit for 5 minutes to thicken further.
Serve warm in bowls, and top with chopped nuts or fresh fruit for added texture and flavor, if desired.
