Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked white rice
• 3 cups Whole milk
• 1/3 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 1/8 teaspoon Salt
• 1 large Apple (peeled, cored, and diced)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1/4 cup Raisins (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the cooked rice, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Step 2

Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it cook uncovered for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the mixture begins to thicken and becomes creamy.

Step 3

While the rice pudding is simmering, prepare the spiced apples. In a small skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the diced apple, brown sugar, cinnamon, and water to the skillet. Stir well to coat the apples evenly with the mixture.

Step 5

Cook the apples for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender but not mushy. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 6

If you are adding raisins, stir them into the rice pudding during the last 5 minutes of cooking to allow them to soften.

Step 7

Once the rice pudding reaches your desired consistency, remove it from the heat. The pudding will thicken further as it cools.

Step 8

To serve, spoon the creamy rice pudding into bowls and top with the warm spiced apples. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of extra cinnamon or a dollop of whipped cream.

Step 9

Enjoy your Stove Top Apple Rice Pudding warm!
