Ingredients

• 1 cup Cooked white rice
• 3 cups Low-fat milk
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.125 teaspoon Salt
• 1 large Egg
• 0.25 cup Raisins (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the cooked white rice, low-fat milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 2

Set the saucepan over medium heat and stir occasionally until the mixture comes to a gentle simmer.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture cook for 20 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. The pudding should thicken as it cooks.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk the egg until fully beaten.

Step 5

Add a couple of tablespoons of the warm pudding mixture to the egg and whisk quickly to temper it. This will prevent the egg from scrambling.

Step 6

Gradually stir the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan of rice pudding.

Step 7

Cook the pudding for an additional 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until it thickens further.

Step 8

If using raisins, stir them in during the final minute of cooking.

Step 9

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the pudding cool slightly before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm or chilled, and sprinkle with a little extra cinnamon on top if desired.
