Creamy Instant Pot Rice Pudding
Eggless Instant Pot Rice Pudding with a Velvety Texture, Minus the Cream.
Equipment
- Instant Pot Duo 6 Quart or 5.7 Litres
Ingredients
- ¼ cup arborio rice – 65 grams. basmati rice or jasmine rice can be added instead
- 3 cups whole milk
- ¼ cup unrefined cane sugar – 75 grams. white sugar can be used instead
- 1 pinch salt
- 8 to 10 almonds – slivered or chopped
- 1 tablespoon golden raisins
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon (cinnamon powder)
- ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg (nutmeg powder)
Instructions
- Take the arborio rice in the inner steel pot. If you want you can rinse the rice once or twice in a small colander or strainer (which is what I do). You can also use basmati and jasmine rice. If using basmati or jasmine rice reduce the milk quantity to 2.5 cups.
- Add unrefined cane sugar, a pinch of salt and whole milk. You can use white sugar instead.
- Stir and mix with a spoon.
- Cover and secure the instant pot with its lid and position the steam release handle to sealing.
- Press the porridge setting button which has an auto timing of 20 minutes.
- After 20 minutes when you hear the beep sound, give a natural pressure release (npr) of 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes lift the steam release handle and when the float valve falls down, open the lid.
- The rice would have formed a few lumps in some places. So break these lumps with a spoon. No need to break all the lumps. Just mash a few.
- Add vanilla extract, ground cinnamon and ground nutmeg.
- Add your choice of nuts. I added some and golden raisins.
- Press the sauté button and set time to 4 to 5 minutes on normal mode. Once the beep sound is heard and you see the pudding simmering, stir often so that the pudding does not burn or scorch from the bottom.
- Break any lumps if any while stirring. You can cancel the sauté mode before the set time of 4 to 5 minutes. Keep in mind the consistency you want as on cooling the pudding thickens more. Stir and simmer till the rice pudding reaches the desired consistency.
- Serve pudding hot or warm or chilled. When serving garnish with some sliced almonds and raisins.
