What you’ll need to make instant pot rice pudding

Special items:

  • Instant Pot – I use an Instant Pot Duo Plus.
  • Colander – To rinse the rice.
  • Wooden spoon – For stirring.

Ingredients:

  • Milk – I recommend that you use whole milk for the creamiest pudding.
  • Water – To help everything come together.
  • Rice – I prefer long-grain white rice, typically basmati or jasmine.
  • Vanilla – It is best to use 100% pure vanilla extract for excellent vanilla flavor with no aftertaste.
  • Cinnamon – Adds a sweet and gently earthy taste.
  • Nutmeg – Pairs well with cinnamon with a hint of spicy sweetness.
  • Sweetened condensed milk – This is important for the sweetness and thick creaminess.
  • Salt – Just a bit of kosher salt for a clean, fresh, salty taste without bitterness.

How to make instant pot rice pudding?

  1. Clean and drain the rice: First, rinse the rice well in a colander and let it drain for about five minutes, stirring it around so it is completely dry.
  2. Fill and set the pot: Add milk, water, cinnamon, nutmeg, rice, and salt to the instant pot. Stir, put the lid on, and seal.
  3. Cook: Cook the pudding on high for 10 minutes. Then, let it naturally release for 10 minutes. After, hit cancel to turn it off and open the valve to release the remaining pressure.
  4. Stir and serve: After it is depressurized, open it and add the sweetened condensed milk and the vanilla. Stir well and then serve.

Expert tip

Different kinds of rice

So, you have probably heard of the basic rice varieties like white, brown, wild, long-grain, and maybe basmati and jasmine. But did you know there are over 40,000 types of rice? Not only do they taste different, but they also cook differently and have different health benefits. Some are best steamed, others are better stir-fried, while others are perfect for making sushi (they call it sushi rice).

White rice can be cooked any way you like for just about any dish. It comes in short, medium, and long grain. Brown is 100% whole-grain, so it is healthier and also tastes nuttier with a chewier texture. It is perfect for stuffings and casseroles. Basmati is aromatic and flavorful, cooks up any way you want, and is excellent in all dishes, including this rice pudding recipe. Jasmine is another lovely scented rice that would be delicious in this pudding.

Arborio is another good choice for rice pudding because it has a creamy texture. However, I do not like it as much in the Instant Pot. Maybe it’s the intense steam that makes it a bit mushy. Short-grain sushi rice is not a good choice for this dish either. The Instant Pot will definitely make it sticky, but in my opinion, it will be too sticky to the point of being clumpy.

Recipe variations and add-ins:

  • Other spices: Instead of (or in addition to), cinnamon and nutmeg, use cloves, ginger, rosemary, lavender, lemon balm, licorice, or sweet basil.
  • Make it spicy: Alternatively, make it spicy pudding by adding some red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper.
  • No vanilla: For a different taste, substitute the vanilla extract with something else, like chocolate, banana, or strawberry.
  • Zesty: Add lime or lemon zest and juice to your pudding for extra tanginess.
  • No dairy: Use non-dairy milk and coconut cream for condensed milk for someone with a milk allergy.   

Serving suggestions:

This can be a dessert, breakfast, or snack. You can also try one of my fun serving ideas here.

  • Make it more of a meal for breakfast or lunch by adding some chopped nuts and fruit. Raisins, cranberries, and chopped walnuts are great choices.
  • Add a drizzle of my thick and rich caramel sauce to your rice pudding for extra deliciousness.
  • This dish is also fantastic topped with blueberry sauce or strawberry sauce.
  • Another great way to top this rice pudding is with my creamy whipped topping dollop.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my rice pudding runny?

There are several reasons why your rice pudding may not have set properly. Your ratio of liquid to rice may not have been correctly measured. It should be about three parts liquid to one part dry rice. Remember, though, that rice pudding thickens as it cools, so remove it from the heat and let it cool for 10 to 15 minutes before you worry it is too runny. If it is still watery after that time, mix one tablespoon of water with one tablespoon of cornstarch until the cornstarch is dissolved. Then, stir it into the rice pudding until it is thick.

What is the best rice for rice pudding?

Any kind of rice will work with this recipe. That being said, I like to use long-grained rice because it is healthier and gives my pudding a better texture and chew. However, different grains absorb liquid differently, so you should take that into consideration, too. That is why I use converted white long-grain rice, but you can also use jasmine, arborio, or basmati rice. Brown rice absorbs rice differently and does not perform as well. 

How does the RICE function work on the instant pot?

First, you do not need to use this function for this recipe since you are not cooking rice traditionally. Secondly, this setting is only for white rice. It will be inaccurate if you cook any other kind of rice. Before you start, cook your rice on a one-to-one ration with water to rice. So, if you cook one cup of rice, you need one cup of water. Then, rinse the rice until it runs clear, press the RICE button, and follow the instructions.

How to store leftovers:

  • Refrigerate: Pour leftover pudding into a jar or airtight container, which can stay in the fridge for up to four days.   
  • Freezing: To freeze, place it in a freezer-safe container. It can be kept for up to three months.   
  • Defrost: Remove from the freezer and thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
  • Reheating: Reheat in the microwave for one to two minutes.

Recipe tips:

  • Do not use the RICE function for this recipe. Just follow the instructions.
  • Ensure you use the correct liquid ratio to rice when cooking so it sets properly.
  • You can use any rice in this recipe. However, brown rice may not be as tender.
  • Try this as a savory dish. Just remove the sweet ingredients and replace them with savory ones.
  • For a non-dairy dish, use almond milk and coconut cream instead.

  1. It’s sooo yummy! Rice pudding is one of my favorite comfort foods. I made it tonight and don’t think its
    going to last for too long! Thx for the easy recipe!

  2. I made this and it was beautiful and delicious and I put it in the fridge to save until the potluck I was going to 6 hours later. When I pulled it out of the fridge it was super thick. I added milk but it seemed to make it more bland. What do you usually do after you put it in the fridge?5 stars

    1. Hi Jobie, I am sorry you comment went into the spam folder, I just rescued it. Preferably you would serve the rice pudding right away, but to answer your question: heat it up on the stove adding the milk a little at a time and if you feel like it get bland, add 1/4 cup of condensed milk and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

  3. I found it a little too sweet with the recipe as written. I am not sure what the size of the can of condensed milk you used was, but I found a full can (300 ml) to be too much. I think I would use half of that next time. But otherwise, it was excellent.

    As with porridge, I used 2 cups of water in the Instantpot, then placed the rack under a stainless steel bowl in which I placed the ingredients. I found this to take away any chance of burning the bottom.4 stars

  4. BeforeI got my IPot, I would precook my rice, add the milk and 2 beaten eggs and seasoning then bake on a 350 oven for about 45 minutes.
    I am trying this recipe this morning. Can hardly wait!

  5. If I double the rice to 2 cups, do I also double all of the milk and water? Sometimes I’ve seen recipes that don’t necessarily double all ingredients.

        1. Doubling a recipe doesn’t require changing the cooking time. Keep in mind that even though you are not increasing the cooking time, the Instant Pot will take longer to build pressure due to the increased quantity of ingredients.

  6. I tried the recipe tonight and it was great! I used 1% milk and put in 3/4 of the can of condensed sweetened milk. Still found it a little sweet so I will use 1/2 a can next time.5 stars

  7. When I look at other recipes they incorporate eggs and yours does not I’m confused I want to make a good rice putting recipe but I’m not sure which one to follow can you answer my question why some people incorporate eggs

    1. Just different recipes, the ones with eggs are mostly done on the stovetop and it produces even a more creamier pudding that resembles a custard texture.

  8. I don’t have a Insta pot can you make this on the stove top? If so what would the cooking time be?

    1. Hi Rhonda, yes, you can, but I think it will be easier if you will look online for a Stovetop Rice Pudding recipe, as I don’t have one on the blog yet, sorry.

  9. I am uncertain about how to use coconut milk with this.

    Can I sub coconut milk for the whole milk and completely omit the condensed milk.

    1. The coconut milk has been used by many readers to substitute for the condensed milk. Specifically, the full fat, canned coconut milk.

  10. I accidentally put in the condensed milk and vanilla before cooking. Will it still work or do I need to start a new batch?

  11. I had used 3 cups left over rice from the Chinese restaurant, omitted the water and cooked for 10 Mins since I wasn’t cooking the rice. Also I accidentally added vanilla and Condensed milk before cooking Ooops. but turned out great! one kid said it was a lot sweeter then in the restaurant but ate it all anyways. THANK YOU!4 stars

  12. Can you use instant rice? Β I have a large a t of instant rice and want to use it up. Β Cooking directions for instant rice?

  13. I was looking for a quick, easy and delicious recipe to make for a friend on chemo. Made it exactly as written and added big plump raisins. Wow! What a hit. Thank you.5 stars

  14. Has anyone tried this with brown rice? I know it would have to cook longer but wondering if it would work.Β 
    Thanks!Β 
    Kristin

  15. Wow! Β I just made this and it is delish! Β I also made your cheesecake recipe and its perfection! Β You are my new go to for instant pot recipes! Β Thank you!5 stars

  16. I was excited to see this recipe for Rice Pudding, IP style. Rice pudding is the only pudding I will eat. The taste and aroma was wonderful. It came out a little thinner then I expected. I wonder if it was due to my use of Basmati Brown Rice. I hope it thickens up. If not, it won’t go to waste since it’s still quite tasty. I will definitely make it again, may try a different rice next time. I used what I had in the cabinet. Thank you for sharing.5 stars

    1. Hi Tamra, thank you for the feedback, I am glad that you enjoyed it and yes, yours was a bit different because of the rice you have used πŸ™‚

  17. Just made this, I doubled the recipe and added some raisins. This is absolutely delicious and the easiest recipe I have made. Will def be making this is much more often..

  18. Delicious! The calorie/carb/sugar count listed on the recipe is way off, however, given that the recipe states that it makes 4 servings.

  19. Hi. I just made this and it’s super yummy. But it’s very watery. I followed the exact recipie. Any suggestions? Thank you.Β 

    1. What kind of rice did you use? Are you sure you used the recommend one and you haven’t added more liquid?

  20. I made it the other night. It was great. Question…..when the 20min is up it starts beeping so I cancelled but you said wait ten minutes then hit cancel. Whay am I not doing right?

    1. You can do it both ways, you can wait 10 minutes, hit cancel and release any remaining pressure. Or you can hit cancel, wai 10 minutes and release pressure, its the same thing.

  21. I was craving a good rice pudding as I had not had one for a long time, found this wonderful recipe and have made it twice in a week. It is fantastic.5 stars

  22. Do you happen to have a recipe converter to do this on the stove? I brought this twice to my son’s book club and everyone loved it. One of the moms would love a recipe but doesn’t have an Instant Pot. Just thought I’d check! Didn’t see anything yet in the comments πŸ˜‰ Thanks either way.

  23. I just got an instant pot and love rice pudding. I’m wondering if anyone has used almond milk instead of regular milk?

  24. Came out great. I took a different approach. Half way thru the cooking process…I turned off the instant pot…vented the steam. Then added, not whole milk, but half-and-half and then the condensed milk and nut-meg. Lid on … steam another 10 minutes….PERFECTION!

  25. Delicious!!! Made some changes because I didn’t have condensed milk or raisins. Used the 1 cup of coconut milk I had in the freezer. Added 2/ 3 cup sugar and two handfuls of unsweetened coconut flakes. Turned out great πŸ™‚ Yum!!5 stars

  26. Love rice pudding, especially with raisins. You said you can add them at the end of the cook time, however how much would I put in? 1/2 cup per cup of rice?

  27. Maybe it’s because I’m from a Cuban family, but I expected lemon rind to be in the recipe. I assume this would not be a good idea in the instant pot since it usually gets removed before the milk is added

  28. Thank you, this is yummy! I made a half batch as a trial, and tomorrow making the full recipe to take to a brunch! I’ll add a bit more milk, maybe after pressure release, since I cut back a bit on the sweetened condensed milk for personal taste. A handful of raisins was perfect, stirred in at the end!5 stars

  29. This is a very easy and yummy recipe! I will definitely make it again! I did find that a whole can of condensed milk was too sweet. I would maybe double the rest of the ingredients next time, but use one can for double the recipe! But a very yummy and easy food on a sick day recovering at home!4 stars

  30. The first time I made it I accidentally bounced between two recipes and one required you to pre-cook the rice (stove-top). It had more of a tapioca pudding texture but was still delicious!!! Thanks so much for the recipe! My new favorite for sure!5 stars

  31. If I were to double this recipe (feeding a big Thanksgiving crowd!), what Instant Pot setting would I need to choose?

  32. In the video you add the vanilla extract In the pot before pressure cooking but printed version of the recipe has it added at the end with the sweetened condensed milk – does it matter which way? Is there a preference?? Making this for Xmas eve as it’s my fiancΓ©e’s favorite desert

  33. I made this and it came out great. Just being honest, it had too much cinnamon, but I guess to each their own. Next time I’m going to cut the amount of cinnamon

  34. I have to give this 5 stars because it’s an exceptional recipe and my personal taste isn’t a reason to dock marks.
    The dish was great, the texture perfect, the recipe is super easy, and the suggested raisins at the end were awesome.
    I found the outcome to be very sweet. Next time I make this, I’m going to try using half the sweetened condensed milk. Otherwise, it hits the mark as an outstanding dessert.

    Glenn5 stars

  35. I have made this recipe several times and we just love it. I have passed it on to few friends and they all love it also. I am going to double the batch this weekend for family gathering. Thanks for wonderful reclpe.

  36. Hi! I have this rice pudding cooking right now! But I was wondering if it is on to double this recipe. Thanks!

  37. I accidentally put in the vanilla and some stuck to the pot, other than that it came out good. I prefer cold rice pudding, so waiting on that.

  38. Making this for the second time. Excellent both times. I didn’t use condensed milk, 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream and 1/4 cup truvia instead. Incredible.5 stars

  39. I made this yesterday with raisins. I have a large dish of it to my neighbor who begged for more. I ate it for dessert last night and tonight, and breakfast this morning with just enough for tomorrow’s breakfast. Great, easy recipe for one of life’s pleasures.5 stars

  40. In quarantine like every one else, so making casseroles and such to get me through. I made this today, but reading through the blog and how sweet you said it was, I doubled the recipe but only used one can of condensed milk and it was perfect. Thank you!5 stars

  41. I made this today. I added raisins when I added the sweetened condensed milk an vanilla. It is perfect. Sweet enough and the cinnamon and nutmeg was perfect. This is a keeper. My husband loves his desserts. Thank you!!

  42. I started cooking this (10 minutes on high pressure) and saved this article to Pocket (article app), then and when I re-read the recipe there it said use the ‘Porridge’ button which cooks for 20 minutes! Can you confirm that 10 minutes is the appropriate cooking timing?

  43. This was so simple to make and soooo good! Next I’ll try a double batch since the first batch disappeared so quickly. πŸ˜€5 stars

  44. This was by far the best rice pudding I’ve ever had. I only had 1% milk so I did 1 cup milk and 1 cup heavy coconut cream. It’s perfect. I could eat this all day every day. I just might…5 stars

  45. Hello to all. The best rice pudding ever. This is an everyone’s make. All who make this flavorful rice pudding will be throwing out their old recipes as I will be doing. LOL My next recipe to try will be the crock pot roast pork wrapped in bacon. This is tomorrow’s dinner.5 stars

  46. This is a great rice pudding base recipe. I added a bit more of water ( 2 cups) because I don’t like it too thick, I also added a big piece of orange peel, a few cloves and 2 big cinnamon sticks. That’s the way we make it in Peru. I followed the cooking instructions. After I released the pressure I removed the orange peel, cloves and cinnamon sticks. I added a small can of evaporated milk, the condensed milk and the raisins. It was a bit sweeter than I would like it to be but that’s something fixable. Thanks for the recipe.

  47. I just made this tonight. I may try a vegan version in the future, but for now, my husband loved it. I was wondering if you can double it? I think our kids would enjoy it for their families, but this amount would not be enough. LOL! This is great comfort food for my husband, who just got home from surgery. Thank you! πŸ™‚5 stars

  48. Made this today for the 1st time, and it was GRRRReat!!

    Doubled the quantity of everything EXCEPT the sweetened condensed milk for my 6 qt. IP.

    I used:
    –1 can coconut milk with enough skim milk to create the 4 cup quantity needed for doubling the original recipe
    –only 1 can of condensed milk (had read that it was too sweet otherwise)
    –1 teas. each, vanilla extract and almond extract
    –long grain, white rice–rinsed well

    I added 2 minutes to the cook time, and did a quick release (oops!…misread doing a 10 minute natural release).

    It was a little watery when I removed the lid, but it thickened up within a few minutes, and then I stirred in the condensed milk and extract(s) as the recipe stated.

    Consistency was perfect, as was the “chew” of the rice with just the right amount of sweetness. So glad to have this easy, delicious recipe for a last-minute dessert with ingredients I always have on hand.

    Thanks, Catalina!

  49. I’ve found you can use the regular insert if you heart the water to just boiling on saute then add in milk and other ingredients and cook as directed. It heats the milk up gradually and I’ve never had a rice or tapioca pudding stick! They’re most of the reason I got an instant pot! If only my grandma was around- all those hours she spent stirring puddings! She’d have been happy to skip the stirring!!5 stars

  50. It works. I’ve done the same thing beforeπŸ™ƒ You just need to add more liquid when it’s done cooking. I used water, but I assume you could add more milk too.5 stars

  51. This turned out great! I added chopped dates after I opened it. Next time I might add them before I start cooking the rice.

  52. Followed recipe to the letter and it was the most amazing rice pudding I’ve ever had…so simple and it turned out creamy and delicious!5 stars

  53. I can’t wait to try this! Do you think coconut milk would work too? I usually use coconut milk for my rice pudding when I make it on the stove.

  54. Just made this, it was delicious. I only used just over half the can of sweetened condensed milk as I found that was sweet enough for me. I used risotto rice. Thank you ! I served it with stewed apples.5 stars

  55. Love this recipe. I made it once and lost my recipe so glad I found it again.. Have you ever put eggs in it? I wonder if they would curdle? I haven’t used my Instant Pot much .

    Thank you for a great recipe.

  56. This is the one! Wow! I needed to use up some ingredients in my pantry, so I substituted a can of evaporated milk and half &half for the 2 cups whole milk. The can of sweetened condensed milk had been waiting patiently in the pantry for this recipe. The best part were the spices…the fresh grated nutmeg and cinnamon made it pop with deliciousness. Much easier than my Grandma’s baked rice pudding recipe, but it still brings back wonderful memories of her. Thanks!

  57. I made the recipe as written, except I only added about 2/3 of the sweetened condensed milk. I still thought it was too sweet. I only added 1 teaspoon of cinnamon in the pot and dusted with more after tasting it. Flavor was good. The rice was very soft and almost mushy, which probably adds to the creaminess. Next time, I’ll try only cooking for 10-15 minutes. Worth trying again.4 stars

  58. I find if you use french vanilla coffee creamer instead of milk and extract it comes out tasting great. If only I could get it so when it cools down it’s not a bid old block but still creamy.5 stars

  59. I just made this in my 3 qt. and holy smokes is it good! I mean like really good. The nutmeg really gives it flavor. The only modification I made was I used 2/3 of the can of sweetened condensed milk because I thought it would be too sweet with all of it. I’ve never made rice pudding before but decided to try this recipe first and it did not disappoint!5 stars

  60. Love the recipe and almost exactly like mine. My flavorings: 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; 3/4 teaspoon, 1/2 teaspoon coriander, 1/2 teaspoon5 stars

  61. I wanted to make mhalbiya, a Tunisian rice pudding, but could find no instant pot recipes for it – and found yours. So I used the measurements in the original recipe (on the 196 Flavors site), which were almost the same as yours, but subbed the rosewater for some of the water (despite the original recipe calling for both).

    I did end up adding more half and half (which I had instead of milk) – and more rosewater. It still wasn’t as creamy as I thought it should be, but your instant pot version saved me so much time and standing at the stove.

  62. My go to reference for my sweet rice! I do make sure it’s not too thick by adjusting the liquids as needed. I also beat 3 egg whites until very stiff and fold it in (my mil’s method). I highly recommend! Thanks so much for sharing your recipe!5 stars

  63. Add some more liquid and it will settle well when it cools. I fold in 3 beaten, stiff egg whites. It makes it much fluffier.

  64. I am making rice pudding for a genealogy event but need to make more than five servings. Can I triple this recipe as is and still make it in the Instant Pot?5 stars

  65. I was confused by the directions for cooking the rice pudding in my Insta Pot. I have the same pot as in the video. The recipe says to pressure cook for 10 minutes. I couldn’t get my pot timer to go above 4 minutes. Finally, I put it on porridge and cooked it for the 4 minutes. The rice pudding was done but it burnt on the bottom of the pot. I’m confused as to what exact buttons to push for the pudding. The pudding did cook and tastes great (next time I might add the egg whites and/or more milk) since it is pretty thick. Thanks for your help.5 stars

  66. This recipe was great. I did adjust the rice up to 1 1/2 cups jasmine rice. I also only used half of a can of eagle brand. The cold weather is approaching, so I will definitely make this many more times!

  67. I’ve made this recipe twice so far and love it! So easy to make. I’ve doubled the recipe, used canned coconut milk instead of whole milk, added raisins, and unsweetened shredded coconut before cooking. Then, added evaporated milk adjusting to my favorite consistency. The cook on the rice is perfect every time. Thank you for sharing! This is definitely my go-to recipe for rice pudding. Yum!!!

  68. Doubled the recipe (have the biggest pot they sell) got a β€œ food burn” msg. Pushed cancel then flicked the vent and sweetened condensed milk sprayed all over my house for about 6 full minutes. Meanwhile I’m trying to get it to the sink or close the vent it bribed me several times. It fell, I’ve got a huge ding in it now. Sticky Milk everywhere. And have to find a way to get the stcky milk out of the vent so I can possibly maybe use my new instant pot again. Do not recommend doubling unless u use a diff recipe.

    1. Hi Vanessa, I am sorry for your experience. But please read the recipe carefully, you add the sweetened condensed milk AFTER pressure cooking. You added it before, hence all the trouble.

  69. For some reason after the 10 minute pressure cook and the 10 minutes on the warm closed mode on a double batch the rice was not cooked near enough and I had to do it for another 5 minutes pressure cook and 10 minutes warm closed and it turned out fine with just a little burn on the outside edge on the bottom. I used 6 and a half cups of 2 percent milk instead of whole milk and water. I also only used 1-14 oz can of condensed milk, that made it sweet enough for me.

    First time using the pressure cook mode. It is definitely easier that doing it on the stovetop and less mess and time.

  70. Excellent recipe. Was going to do it in my 3qrt, but wasn’t sure it would fit. Used 8art. Came out really well, used an extra long grain Basmati rice. The only thing I would do differently, is add a little more liquid. Maybe 1/4 more water and 1/4 more milk. It didn’t burn but there was a slight brown scorch on bottom. Delish and easy.5 stars

  71. This recipe was so good! Thank you so much!
    It was actually not too sweet for me. I ended up adding a bit more sugar at the end to up the sweetness πŸ˜€5 stars

  72. I’ve tried many recipes and this is, hands down, the best! I’ve made it several times now. No β€œburn” message and it’s absolutely delicious!
    The first time I made it, I followed the recipe to a T. Then, I decided to double the recipe because my family loves it and added my own extras. I’ve used a can of coconut milk (not cream) adding whole milk to measure 4 cups since I doubled it. Also added raisins and unsweetened shredded coconut. Still only used 1 can of condensed milk (which you add AFTER depressurizing). It’s sweet enough. If it’s too thick at the end, I like to add more coconut or evaporated milk. Thank you for the wonderful recipe!! πŸ˜‹πŸ’—5 stars

  73. I made this recipe and it was awesome and tastes like the rice pudding my Grandmother made.
    If I want to use sugar instead of sweetened condensed milk would I use white or brown and how much would I use.

  74. I like to double this recipe in my 8 qt. IP. I also substitute unsweetened vanilla almond milk for the whole milk; I only use one can of sweetened condensed milk for the doubled recipe; and I add 4-6 packets of artificial sweetener and two cinnamon sticks before cooking. I’ve also used short-grain brown rice: I can get a big bag of it at Costco.
    We love this rice pudding! Thanks for sharing it. πŸ™‚5 stars

  75. I also put the condensed milk in first πŸ˜‘ But I realized my mistake and scraped the bottom of the pot before it got to pressure.

    The recipe still turned out excellent β™₯️5 stars

  76. What’s the best remedy for putting in the condensed milk and vanilla the same time as everything else?

  77. Made this for dessert tonight. Only used 1/2 can of evap. Cond. Milk was too sweet . Will make extra rice to cut the sweetness but it still is very good and will make again5 stars

  78. Our house is just recovering from a nasty tummy virus, so I was looking for nondairy alternative for a tummy soothing rice dish. Made this with a mix of full fatted and light coconut milk (because that’s what was in my pantry) and only one can of sweetened condensed milk for a double recipe. A couple cinnamon sticks and freshly grated nutmeg. So good! Just the right combination of sweetness and creaminess. Thanks.5 stars

  79. Easy & delicious! Only thing I added was raisins. Soaked 3/4 cup in hot water while rice was cooking. Drained in mesh then added with last two ingredients. Yum!5 stars

  80. Very easy, fast recipe to satisfy a craving for rice pudding. Great texture, but WAY too sweet. Will cut condensed milk with whole milk next time5 stars

  81. I have made rice pudding many times so overall this is a good receipe…here are a few of my pointers! Do not throw in all of the condensed milk..start with 1/4 cup and 1/3 cup of regular milk. If you think you need it sweeter then add more condensed milk and a little more while milk. Soak your raisins and rice ahead of time before you mix them up..enjoy! It’s petty good!

  82. Made my first batch a few weeks ago for my husband! He loved it. Held back a little on condensed milk due to other consent and came out perfect.

    Doubling the recipe for thanksgiving!4 stars

  83. Will this work with Arborio rice? I looked at the recipe info by you, but wasn’t sure if you were saying yest to it or not.

  84. I’m making another batch, this time doubling it and just using 1 can of SCM to sweeten at the end. My husband LOVES rice pudding. My raisins were a little dry/hard but didn’t have to do anything extra to them, just put them in and they came out great. I used Arborio rice and had put in extra last time, so upon doubling it I put in 3 cups of rice. I feel that it will work great, because I’m sure the extra that I added in last time was at least a half a cup.

  85. This is such a good recipe! Like others, I cut way back on the sweetened condensed milk so it wasn’t as creamy but still delicious. I also added raisins.5 stars

  86. This recipe is very easy and the end result tasty. As others have said, the amount of condensed milk may be too sweet, so you should adjust accordingly. I found that when I refrigerated the pudding that the next day it was a solid block.5 stars

  87. Best rice pudding I’ve ever had. The texture of the rice is spot on. The flavor are amazing. Thank you for sharing.5 stars

  88. This was so simple and so delicious. I used half coconut milk and half whole milk- simply splendid. I will definitely be making this again.

  89. Yummy. I doubled it and only had 1 can of sweet and condensed milk so I threw in a can of coconut milk and a little sugar (didn’t measure). Turned out great. Creamy and perfectly sweet. I did have one problem. It burned and set off the burn signal in the IP. I opened it, stored and out the lid back on. There was some burnt rice in there but it doesn’t taste burnt at all. Anyone else have this problem? Any idea why it did? What can I do to prevent it? I did stir it all together before I started it.

  90. I’ve made this before and it was delicious! I did find that a whole can of Condensed sweetened milk was way too much for us as well so I doubled everything else the second time and it was perfection! This time I only have jasmine rice though. Would the liquid ratio still be the same?5 stars

  91. Today we are giving your recuse try. It looks perfect. In the past there had been issues with rice burning on the bottom so fingers are crossed. Thank you for the inspiration,

  92. In your instructions it just says to pressure cook for 10 mins, but you don’t mention of that is on low or high pressure and also is it on normal?

  93. Absolutely delicious! I followed the recipe as written except I used the sweet rice that I had on hand (instead of Basmati rice). It was a touch sweet for my taste but my husband loved it.5 stars

  94. Only had 2% milk. Also I accidentally put the vanilla extract in beforehand. So I did add a splash more vanilla at the end. I used probably 3/4 can of sweetened condensed milk. THIS WAS SO GOOD! And fool proof, clearly. Rice cooked perfectly. So easy.5 stars

  95. This was sooo good I ate it for lunch and dinner . Tastes like eggnog; don’t skip the nutmeg! My family dislikes oatmeal and this has the same texture; I had it all to myself. I cooked 3/4 cup of mixed cranberries and raisins in the pot. I think that absorbed a bit of cooking liquid as I had to add milk after to thin the rice out. I used Aboro rice and only a 1/4 can of condensed milk. I can’t imagine using a whole can; it’s very sweet. I’ll be making this again…for myself.5 stars

  96. I can’t wait for mine to finish cooking!! It’s on right now and I didn’t have milk, so I put unsweetened soymilk and doubled the batch, so I added 2 cups of Eggnog as the milk for the second one as I’m not sure where my nutmeg went haha. I think it’ll be amazing!! It’s been years since I’ve had rice pudding!

  97. Made exactly as listed except for 1% milk instead of whole milk. Delicious! Best rice pudding I’ve had in a long time. My kids devoured it.5 stars

  98. Easy peasy and it was so creamy. 9 added part of the vanilla to cooking rice and some after when I added the condensed milk. For 1 cup of the milk 8 used half and half. It was great. I am definitely making it again and will try it with raisens.5 stars

  99. This was very good and I really liked that no eggs were involved in the making made it exactly as directed but it needed more liquid when finished so I added 1/2cup each of heavy cream and milk.Worked out perfectly.
    After enjoying this delicious dessert I had some strawberries and cream left from dessert the day before and decided to combine them,OMG sΓ²ooo good my hubby loved it and he is no rice pudding fan.Even better he asked a few hours later, “so are we not having the dessert til tomorrow?”
    Yes!! IT’S A WINNER FOR SURE THANKS FOR SHARING.
    NOW IF I COULD FIND A TAPIOCA RECIPE, hint,hint5 stars

  100. Easy and tasty. I took one star off for a couple of steps that either need to be added or changed. First, spray the pot with a non-stick spray before cooking, and second, only put 1/2 of the cinnamon and nutmeg in when cooking. My bottom of the pot ended up a baked on mess of cinnamon. Also, I think half of the spice amounts would be better and not so overpowering. Add more spice after it’s cooked to adjust the flavor.
    I was craving rice pudding and this recipe fit the bill. I just didn’t anticipate the mess on the bottom of my pan.4 stars

  101. My family loves rice pudding, but I’ve only ever made it in the oven. I was afraid when I saw the that this recipe used sweetened condensed milk instead of sugar, but we were so happy with the flavor! All of my family loved it and said it was the perfect consistency and sweetness. Thank you!5 stars
