Apple-Raisin Rice Pudding

Vegetarian
Gluten-Free
Rice pudding is the ultimate kid-friendly treat. Its creamy tex-
ture and vanilla flavoring can be matched by no other dessert. It’s
important to use short-grain rice in this recipe to attain the perfect
smoothness to the pudding. Stove top-simmered rice pudding,
like this recipe, involves a lot of stirring but that makes it creamy
and memorable.
Make-Ahead Tip: Make this rice pudding ahead of time and keep
it in the refrigerator for an easy dessert during the week. You can
serve it warm or chilled.

3 cups milk ¼ cup dried apples
½ cup short-grain brown rice Pinch salt
¼ cup pure maple syrup 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
¼ cup raisins 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1. In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, rice, maple syrup,
raisins, apples, and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently to
prevent scorching.
2. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 20 to
25 minutes, stirring frequently until the rice is tender and the
mixture is creamy.
3. Stir in the vanilla and cinnamon. Serve warm or cover and
refrigerate up to 1 week.
