For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the rice in a dry pan for a few minutes before adding the coconut milk. Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar to your liking. Start with less and add more to taste. A pinch of salt enhances the sweetness and balances the flavors. Garnish with toasted coconut flakes, fresh fruit (mango, berries), chopped nuts (almonds, macadamia), a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of maple syrup.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
2 mins
In a medium-sized heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the coconut milk, cane sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir well to dissolve the sugar. (2 minutes)
02
Step
1 mins
Add the rinsed rice to the saucepan and stir to ensure it's fully submerged in the coconut milk mixture. (1 minute)
03
Step
5 mins
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. (Approximately 5 minutes)
04
Step
20 mins
Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid, but the mixture remains slightly soupy. This will take approximately 20-25 minutes.
05
Step
5 mins
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the rice pudding rest, covered, for 5-10 minutes to allow it to thicken further. (5-10 minutes)
06
StepSpoon the warm rice pudding into individual serving dishes or ramekins. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for a refreshing cold dessert.
