Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup cooked brown rice
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated erythritol or stevia
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.125 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened raisins (optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the cooked brown rice and unsweetened almond milk.
Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the granulated erythritol or stevia, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
Continue to cook on low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and becomes creamy.
If desired, stir in the unsweetened raisins during the last 2–3 minutes of cooking.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the pudding cool for 5 minutes. The mixture will continue to thicken as it cools.
Divide the pudding evenly between two serving bowls and garnish with a sprinkle of additional ground cinnamon, if desired.
Serve warm or chill in the refrigerator for a cold dessert.
