- 1 cup uncooked white or brown rice
- 2 1/2 cups milk of choice
- 1 cup additional milk of choice
- 1/2 cup sweetener of choice
- 1/2 tsp each: cinnamon and salt
- 1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- optional 1/2 cup raisins
Heat the rice and 2 1/2 cups milk over medium heat in a saucepan. Once boiling, cover and lower to a simmer until the liquid soaks into the rice and turns it thick and fluffy. The time this takes will depend greatly on the type of rice used (anywhere between 20-50 minutes), and brown rice takes longer than white, so check on it and stir a few times. (If your stove doesn't have a simmer option, heat on the lowest setting and leave the lid slightly open so the mixture doesn't boil over.) Add the remaining milk and all other ingredients except the vanilla, and bring back to a full boil. Cover the pan, turn off the heat completely, and let sit covered for 20 minutes. Then stir in the vanilla. It should be thick and creamy. If it's too dry, stir in more liquid. Serve hot, or refrigerate in an airtight container and serve leftovers hot or cold.View Nutrition Facts
