Vintage Creamy Rich Rice Pudding (Pressure Cooker) image

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups of milk, half & half, or 1/2 milk-1/2 half & half
2 tb. butter
1 cup long grain rice, uncooked
1 pinch of salt
1 tb. vanilla
1/2-1 cup raisins, regular or golden
scant 1/2 cup sugar
OPTIONAL ADDITIONS
sprinkle of cinnamon and/or nutmeg once dished
1/2 tsp. lemon zest (add before pressure cooking)
swirl of raspberry jelly on top after dished
whipping cream, whipped

Steps:

  • 1. Add milk and butter to pressure cooker. Turn on browning/warming plate and heat until milk is warm and butter has melted stirring occasionally.
  • 2. Add rice and salt. Stir. Cover pressure cooker and lock. Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
  • 3. Release pressure, uncover and add raisins, vanilla and sugar. With power off, cover and allow to sit for 15-20 minutes. Raisins will plump and sauce will become rich and creamy. I enjoy mine plain, allowing the vanilla flavor to shine through, but feel free to customize as you wish. I don't like to add the cinnamon to the pudding because I don't think it looks as nice, and each person in our home likes it served a little differently. Enjoy!
