This comforting Crockpot Rice Pudding is an easy-to-make, creamy dessert cooked slowly in a crockpot. It features tender instant rice simmered with whole milk, brown and white sugars, butter, cinnamon, and vanilla, resulting in a rich, sweet pudding perfect for cozy nights. Optional raisins and cinnamon sticks add a traditional touch for serving.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 6 cups whole milk
  • 2 cups instant rice
  • ¾ cup white granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Optional Garnishes

  • ½ cup raisins
  • Extra cinnamon for garnish
  • Cinnamon sticks for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prep the crockpot: Lightly spray the inside of your crockpot with non-stick spray. This step helps ease cleanup after cooking.
  2. Add the ingredients: Pour the whole milk, instant rice, white sugar, brown sugar, salted butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, salt, and raisins (if using) into the crockpot. Stir thoroughly so all ingredients are well combined.
  3. Let it cook: Cover and cook on low heat for about 4 hours. Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking and to ensure even cooking. The pudding is done when the rice is tender and the mixture has thickened to your preferred consistency. It will thicken further as it cools.
  4. Serve and enjoy: Spoon the warm rice pudding into bowls. Garnish with a sprinkle of extra cinnamon, raisins, or a cinnamon stick if desired. Serve warm for the best comforting dessert experience.

Notes

  • Stir the pudding occasionally during cooking to prevent sticking and ensure even texture.
  • Using instant rice reduces cooking time compared to traditional rice puddings.
  • You can omit raisins or substitute with your favorite dried fruit for variation.
  • The pudding thickens more as it cools, so you may want to serve it slightly less thick immediately after cooking.
  • For a creamier texture, consider stirring in a splash of cream or evaporated milk just before serving.
