Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup uncooked rice (jasmine or Arborio works best)
  • 4 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crockpot: Lightly grease the inside of the crockpot with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Add the uncooked rice, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg into the crockpot. Stir to mix all ingredients evenly.
  3. Cook Slowly: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low heat for 4 to 5 hours. Stir the pudding occasionally during cooking to prevent the rice from sticking to the pot and to ensure even cooking.
  4. Check for Doneness: The rice should be tender and the mixture thickened to a creamy consistency. If needed, cook a bit longer until desired texture is reached.
  5. Serve: Spoon the warm rice pudding into bowls and sprinkle with additional cinnamon if desired. Serve warm for the best comforting experience.

Notes

  • You can use jasmine or Arborio rice for the best creamy texture; short-grain rice works well due to its starch content.
  • Stir occasionally during cooking to prevent rice from sticking and ensure even cooking.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute milk with almond or coconut milk, but cooking times may vary slightly.
  • Adjust sugar according to your preference for sweetness.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently before serving.
