Old-Fashioned Rice Pudding is so creamy with the perfect texture and sweetness. Only a handful of ingredients and a little patience are needed to make this old time favorite dessert.

Ingredients

  • 6 cups whole milk, (divided)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup long grain white rice, (I use a heaping half cup)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ground cinnamon, (optional)

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large saucepan, combine 5 1/2 cups milk, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Stir in rice and reduce heat to low. Be sure to adjust the heat so that it is at a gentle simmer.

  3. 3

    Stirring occasionally, cook for 50 to 60 minutes. Mixture should thicken up to consistency of yogurt.

  4. 4

    Once thickened, remove from heat and stir in vanilla.

  5. 5

    Let cool and then refrigerate. The last 1/2 cup milk is stirred in just before serving. Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.
