Ingredients

  • 1 cup short grain white rice
  • 3 cups water
  • 2 cups skimmed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 0.5 cup fresh berries

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the short grain white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch, preventing the porridge from becoming too sticky.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer the rice for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the water is nearly absorbed.

Step 3

Add the skimmed milk, vanilla extract, and salt to the saucepan. Stir to combine and continue to cook uncovered over low heat for another 10-15 minutes.

Step 4

Stir the porridge frequently to prevent it from sticking to the bottom. The porridge should become creamy and thickened.

Step 5

Once the desired consistency is reached, remove from heat and stir in the ground cinnamon and maple syrup.

Step 6

Serve the low-fat creamy rice porridge warm in bowls, topped with fresh berries.

Step 7

Optional: For added flavor, consider topping with a sprinkle of additional cinnamon or a few chopped nuts as a garnish.
