This creamy rice pudding is going to put others to shame. It has the perfect rice to cream ratio and the cinnamon takes it to another level.
I remember hating milk as a child. My mother has most probably tried every brand available, but my taste buds refused to accept not only its texture but it’s flavor too! It was at that time that bottles of fresh milk started to make an appearance on the refrigerator shelves of the grocery stores. I could hardly take a few sips. Then it dawned on my mother that although I would not drink it I might as well eat it! So, I was introduced to rice pudding!
Easy to make, using affordable ingredients that most kitchens have as staples it was perfect for a test! I was hooked…
Creamy in texture with a sweet and cool taste. Milk was not a problem anymore!
Cinnamon is optional but I highly recommend it. You will not regret it!
I can have this rice pudding as breakfast, dessert, snack, or – why not? – as a light dinner. Cinnamon is optional but I highly recommend it! You can also top it with nuts or fresh fruit.
Serve straight or add your toppings of choice and enjoy!
