Indulge in the comfort of homemade dessert with this 'Speedy Rice Pudding' recipe—perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth in just 20 minutes! Made with simple pantry staples like cooked white rice, creamy whole milk, and a hint of vanilla, this quick and easy recipe delivers rich, velvety results without the fuss. A sprinkle of warm cinnamon and the optional addition of plump raisins elevate this classic pudding to cozy perfection. Whether served warm for an instant treat or chilled for a refreshing dessert, this creamy rice pudding is a versatile delight that's ideal for busy weeknights. Plus, it's a great way to give leftover rice a second life!
In a medium saucepan, combine the cooked white rice, whole milk, and granulated sugar over medium heat.
Stir the mixture frequently to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Once the mixture begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pudding thickens.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the unsalted butter, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt.
If using raisins, fold them into the mixture at this stage.
Serve the rice pudding warm, or let it cool and refrigerate it for a chilled version.
Garnish with an additional sprinkle of cinnamon before serving, if desired.
