Creamy Dreamy Rice Pudding (Non-Dairy) image

This is an adaptation of my grandmother's rice pudding which I fondly remember. It is non-dairy and naturally sweetened, for my darling husband. It is a creamy dreamy warm after school treat on a cold winter day. A big favourite in my house, I know you'll love it as much as we do. Try flavoured soy beverages for a taste variation, just cut back or omit the maple syrup, vanilla and spices as required.

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup arborio rice (short grain Italian rice)
1 1/2 cups water
3 cups unsweetened soymilk (beverage)
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (use a bean if you've got it)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon fresh nutmeg

Steps:

  • Boil the water and rice together on medium heat until the rice releases its starch and becomes creamy.
  • Add 1 cup soy milk and the maple syrup. Simmer, stirring frequently until most of the soy milk is absorbed, and the rice is bubbly and thick (about 7 minutes).
  • Add second and third cups of soy milk in the same manner as the first, continuing to stir frequently.
  • When the pudding has reached the desired creaminess (about 5 minutes following last soy milk addition), remove from heat and add the vanilla and spices.
  • Ladle into serving bowls and sprinkle with cinnamon.
  • The pudding may be eaten warm or cold, and will firm up a little as it cools.
  • Store covered in the refrigerator up to two days, if it lasts that long.
  • Enjoy!
