How To Make Creamy Rice Pudding

1. First things first, grab your medium saucepan. Pour in milk, rice, sugar and a pinch of salt. Get the heat on a medium, stirring constantly…
2. Once the milk comes to boil, reduce the heat to low. Keep stirring occasionally for about 20-25 minutes till the rice gets tender….
3. Next up, grab your mixing bowl. Crack open two eggs in there, beat ’em up, and then slowly stir in a couple of spoonfuls of hot rice mixture into the eggs…
4. Then, pour this egg mixture back into the saucepan. Increase the heat to medium and keep stirring for a couple of minutes till it thickens…
5. The last things to go in there should be your raisins, vanilla extract and cinnamon. I personally love to sprinkle some extra cinnamon on top, but that’s entirely up to you!

Tips For The Best Results

• Use a whisk instead of a spoon for a super smooth texture.

Storage Tips

• Rice pudding is best enjoyed warm, but it can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
• When reheating, add a splash of milk to restore it’s original creamy consistency.
