Slow Cooker Rice Pudding (Creamy & Comforting) 🍚🥛
A warm, sweet dessert that cooks itself—perfect for cozy evenings.
📝 Ingredients:
- 1 cup uncooked white rice (long grain or basmati)
- 4 cups milk (whole or your choice)
- ½ cup sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: raisins, nutmeg, cardamom, or chopped nuts
👩🍳 Instructions:
1. Add Ingredients to Slow Cooker
- Combine rice, milk, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and optional raisins.
2. Cook
- Low: 4–5 hours
- High: 2–3 hours
- Stir once or twice if possible to prevent sticking.
3. Finish
- Stir in vanilla extract
- Sprinkle with extra cinnamon or nuts before serving
4. Serve
- Can be enjoyed warm or chilled
🔥 Flavor Variations:
- Chocolate Rice Pudding: add cocoa powder or chocolate chips
- Coconut: use coconut milk instead of regular milk
- Fruit Twist: mix in chopped apples, mango, or berries
💡 Tips:
- Use long-grain rice for fluffier texture, short-grain for creamier pudding
- Don’t overcook—it thickens more as it cools
- Stir gently to keep it creamy
If you want, I can give you a quick 3-ingredient crockpot rice pudding or a desi-style rice kheer version 😄.
