Prep Time

The prep time for this recipe is minimal. You will need to soak the brown rice for at least 2 hours before starting the recipe, but this can be done ahead of time.

Cook Time

The cook time for this recipe is approximately 45 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup brown rice
  • 4 cups skim milk
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup raisins (optional)

Equipment

  • Large saucepan
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula
  • Whisk
  • Baking dish

Method

  1. Soak the brown rice in water for at least 2 hours. Drain and rinse the rice.
  2. In a large saucepan, combine the rice, milk, honey, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally. The mixture should thicken and the rice should be cooked through.
  4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and raisins (if using).
  5. Transfer the pudding to a baking dish and let it cool to room temperature.
  6. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
  7. Serve the pudding chilled, with additional cinnamon and raisins if desired.

Notes

This pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. If the pudding becomes too thick after refrigeration, simply stir in a little extra milk before serving. For a creamier texture, you can substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for some or all of the skim milk.
