Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 6 cups whole milk (for best results, avoid skim milk as it may be too watery)
- 2 bags Success Rice – Boil-in-Bag
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
Instructions
- Prepare the Slow Cooker: Begin by placing the butter at the bottom of your 4-quart slow cooker or Crock-Pot. Allow the butter to melt completely before moving on to the next step.
- Add the Rice: Once the butter has melted, introduce the uncooked rice into the slow cooker. Stir gently to ensure the rice is evenly coated with the melted butter, enhancing its richness and flavor.
- Mix the Flavors: Pour in the milk, followed by the granulated sugar, salt, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and brown sugar. Stir all the ingredients thoroughly, ensuring they are well combined. The mixture should be smooth and even.
- Cook to Perfection: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low heat. Allow the pudding to cook for 3 to 4 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking. The pudding is ready when the rice is tender and the mixture has thickened to a creamy consistency.
- Cool and Serve: Once the pudding has reached the desired consistency, turn off the slow cooker. Let it cool for about 15 minutes before serving. This resting period helps the pudding set further and enhances the flavors.
- Garnish and Enjoy: Spoon the rice pudding into small bowls or ramekins. For an added touch of warmth and flavor, sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top. Serve it while it’s still warm for the best experience.
