Rice Pudding Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup white rice

2 cups whole milk

3 cups water

1 14 oz can condensed milk

1 tsp cinnamon

1 TBSP vanilla extract

1 TBSP butter

1 egg, beaten

Pinch of salt

 

 

Directions

In a pot, combine the milk, water, rice and butter over medium heat, allow the mixture to come to a boil.

Once boiling, lower heat and cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes. The rice should be just about cooked but you should have some liquid left, if not add a small amount of ilk.

Remove from heat and add condensed milk, vanilla, cinnamon and salt and stir well to combine.

Return to heat for 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and add egg slowly and stir constantly.

Serve warm or chill in the fridge!

Tips:

  • Be sure to stir the rice pudding occasionally while it simmers to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan and burning.
  • If you want a thinner consistency, you can add more milk or cream to the mixture while it cooks.
  • For added flavor, you can also add a cinnamon stick or a few drops of almond extract to the mixture while it cooks.

 

In conclusion, this creamy rice pudding recipe is a delicious and comforting dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients and some patience, you can create a dessert that will please any crowd. So why not give it a try and enjoy the creamy, comforting goodness of rice pudding?
