Rice Pudding Light image

A lighter version of rice pudding that my family enjoys. When I am craving my grandmother's rice pudding, but don't want the fat, I make this version.

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup water
1 cup short-grain rice (long grain will not work) or 1 cup medium grain rice (long grain will not work)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 cups skim milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar, to taste
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon or 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, to taste

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a heavy 3 quart saucepan.
  • Stir in raw rice and butter, cooking, uncovered, over medium heat for about 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until water is absorbed and rice looks creamy.
  • Stir in milk and a small pinch of salt.
  • Bring to just a boil over medium high heat, stirring and watching your pot like a hawk so it doesn't burn or boil over -- the second it starts to bubble, remove from heat.
  • Reduce temperature to low, and return pan to the heat to cook, covered, about 30-50 minutes, stirring occasionally (cook less for creamier, softer pudding, longer for firmer pudding).
  • Stir in sugar to taste and vanilla.
  • Pour into serving cups or bowl, dust with some cinnamon or freshly grated nutmeg, and chill well.

This rice pudding is the perfect comfort food. It's warm, creamy, and just sweet enough. I love to eat it on a cold winter day.

I love that this rice pudding is made with coconut milk. It gives it a really nice flavor and makes it dairy-free. It's a great option for people with lactose intolerance.

I'm not usually a fan of rice pudding, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so creamy and flavorful. I love that it's made with brown rice too. It's a healthier version of a classic comfort food.
