Equipment

Ingredients

2 cups cooked rice
1-1/2 cups non-fat milk, or unsweetened almond milk
2 large eggs
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt

Optional possible additions:

1/4 cup shredded coconut
1/3 cup raisins or chopped dates, chopped figs, chopped apricots or other dried fruit
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 - 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules

Instructions

Ideal Slow Cooker Size: 1-1/2-Quart.
Place the rice, milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and salt (and any optional additions) in the slow cooker and stir well to combine.
Cover and cook on LOW until the mixture is still thick but a bit fluid, 2 to 2-1/2 hours. (It will continue to cook as it cools.) Taste and add more salt and/or sugar if you think it needs it.
Transfer the pudding to a bowl and let it cool at room temperature. If it gets too thick as it cools, stir in more milk to loosen it.

Serving size: 1/2 cup without additions
