Best Simple Light Nutella Rice Pudding Recipes

RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a heavy bottomed, 3 quart sauce pan, combine the milk, water, sugar, cinnamon stick and rice. Stir to combine.
• Bring to an intense simmer (just below boiling) over medium high heat, stirring often. Reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer and continue cooking, stirring often until the rice is tender, about 35 to 45 minutes. Some liquid will remain. The mixture should have the consistency of a thin oatmeal but will continue to thicken as it cools.
• Remove from heat and remove the cinnamon stick. Stir in the vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract and raisins, if using.
• Spoon the rice pudding into individual ramekins or small containers OR transfer to a large serving dish. Let the pudding cool slightly before serving or let cool to room temperature, cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 1 day in advance.
• Just before serving, top with freshly grated cinnamon or ground cinnamon. Pudding can be enjoyed warm or cooled.

HOW TO MAKE THE ABSOLUTE EASIEST RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Measure out the rice and milk. Place 1 cup uncooked short-grain or long-grain white rice, or 3 cups cooked rice in a large saucepan. Add 4 cups milk for uncooked rice, 3 cups milk for cooked rice.
• Add the flavorings. Add 1/3 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. If using vanilla bean, scrape the seeds from 1/2 vanilla bean and add the seeds and the pod into the saucepan. If using vanilla bean paste, add 1 1/2 teaspoons. Add any desired add-ins.
• Bring to a simmer. Bring the mixture to a vigorous simmer over medium-high heat, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula so that the rice does not stick.
• Simmer until the rice is tender. Reduce the heat to maintain a bare simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the rice is very tender and the mixture starts to thicken, 20 to 22 minutes for uncooked rice, 10 to 12 minutes for cooked rice.
• Add the butter and vanilla extract. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract if using and 1 tablespoon unsalted butter if desired until melted. Remove the vanilla bean pod if needed. Taste and add more sugar as desired.
• Serve the rice pudding. The rice pudding will continue to thicken as it cools. Thin out with more milk if desired, and serve warm or cold.
