Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Healthier Creamy Brown Rice Pudding.
Step 1
Begin by assembling all the essential ingredients for your delightful rice pudding.
Step 2
In a saucepan, combine water and brown rice, bringing the mixture to a vigorous boil over high heat.
Step 3
Once it reaches a boil, lower the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and allow it to simmer until the rice is tender, which should take about 45 minutes.
Step 4
Meanwhile, in a separate clean saucepan, blend the cooked rice with 1 1/2 cups of low-fat milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt.
Step 5
Cook this creamy concoction over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to a luscious consistency, typically around 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 6
Next, fold in the remaining 1/2 cup of low-fat milk, the beaten egg, and the sweet raisins.
Step 7
Keep the heat on and stir constantly for an additional 2 minutes to ensure everything melds beautifully without sticking.
Step 8
Finally, take the saucepan off the heat and stir in the butter and a splash of vanilla extract for that extra touch of flavor.
Step 9
Serve this warm, and enjoy a comforting dessert that warms the heart and soul.
