Ingredients
- 1 cup short-grain rice
- 2 cups water
- 4 cups whole milk
- 0.33 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup raisins
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Stir in the rice, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the water is fully absorbed.
Step 3
Add the milk, sugar, and salt to the cooked rice. Increase the heat to medium and stir until the mixture begins to thicken, about 20 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Once the pudding thickens, stir in the raisins and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and mix in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and butter. Stir until well combined.
Step 6
Let the rice pudding cool for 5–10 minutes before serving. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
Step 7
Serve warm or chilled in individual bowls, optionally garnished with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dollop of whipped cream.
