This creamy and comforting rice pudding is prepared with minimal effort thanks to the slow cooker. A cozy treat made with simple ingredients like milk, rice, and a dash of cinnamon, it’s the perfect no-fuss dessert or snack for any time of the year.
Step 1: Add the milk, coconut milk, rice, sugar, and salt into the bowl of your slow cooker.
Step 2: Gently stir the mixture using a wooden spoon to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Step 3: Cover the slow cooker with the lid and set it to the low setting. Cook for 3 to 4 hours.
Step 4: Once the cooking time is complete, the slow cooker will automatically stop. Carefully open the lid.
Step 5: Serve the pudding warm on plates or in bowls and sprinkle with cinnamon powder before serving.
Notes
You may use brown rice as a substitute for a nuttier flavor and added fiber. Experimenting with different types of milk such as almond or soy milk can offer varied taste profiles. For a thicker custard-like texture, consider incorporating two beaten eggs into the mixture before cooking. Leftover plain rice may be used—add 1 cup milk and 2 tablespoons sugar and cook for 20 minutes.
