Ingredients
- 1 cup Medium-grain white rice
- 4 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Raisins (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch and keeps the pudding creamy but not clumpy.
Step 2
Add the rinsed rice, whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, and unsalted butter to the slow cooker.
Step 3
Stir in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt to evenly distribute the flavors.
Step 4
If you’re adding raisins, stir them in at this stage.
Step 5
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on LOW for 4 hours, stirring halfway through to ensure the rice cooks evenly and doesn’t stick to the bottom.
Step 6
After 4 hours, check the pudding consistency. If it’s too thick, you can stir in extra milk (a few tablespoons at a time) to loosen it up.
Step 7
Turn off the slow cooker and let the pudding cool slightly. The pudding will thicken as it cools.
Step 8
Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold, garnished with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon if desired. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
