Ingredients
Scale
- 4 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 cup uncooked white rice (short or medium grain)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Ground cinnamon, for serving (optional)
- Raisins, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, combine the milk, rice, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, for 25-30 minutes or until the rice is tender and the mixture is thick and creamy.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Serve warm or chilled, topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon and raisins if desired.
Notes
For a richer pudding, use whole milk. The pudding will continue to thicken as it cools. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
