Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Short-grain white rice
- 2 cups Water
- 3 cups Whole milk
- 0.333 cup Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 cup Seasonal fruit (e.g., berries, sliced peaches, or diced apples)
- 2 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup (optional, for drizzling)
Instructions
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the rice simmer for about 10 minutes, or until most of the water is absorbed.
Add the whole milk, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt to the pot with the partially cooked rice. Stir well to combine.
Cook the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, for about 20–25 minutes or until the rice is tender and the pudding thickens.
Remove the rice pudding from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Let the pudding cool slightly for 5–10 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare your chosen seasonal fruit by washing, peeling, or slicing it as needed.
Spoon the warm rice pudding into serving bowls and top each portion with seasonal fruit. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup if desired for added sweetness.
Serve immediately and enjoy this creamy, comforting dessert!
