Swap This Delicious Hot Rice Cereal Recipe For Oatmeal As Cold Weather Sets In

Ingredients

1 C Arborio Rice

4 C Almond milk, unsweetened, divided

¼ t salt

1 small Cinnamon stick

1/3 C Maple syrup (no corn syrup)

½ C Raisins

Ground cinnamon or grated nutmeg for garnish

Directions:

Rinse and drain the rice.

In a medium saucepan, combine rice, 3 C milk, salt and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring often to prevent rice from sticking and milk from boiling over. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes.

Stir in the maple syrup and continue cooking, stirring often and adding more milk if necessary, for about 30 minutes more or until the rice is cooked through and has absorbed most of the milk. Stir in the raisins and remove cinnamon stick.

Serve the rice pudding warm or cool, with cinnamon or nutmeg sprinkled on top.
