Ingredients
- 1 cup uncooked short-grain white rice
- 2 cups water
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 1 (15 oz) can coconut milk
- ¾ cup canned pumpkin puree
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp pumpkin spice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ to ½ tsp sea salt
Directions
- In a medium sized sauce pan add the rice, water, and cinnamon sticks. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
- Once boiling, cover the pan with a lid, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 8-10 minutes until most of the water is absorbed.
- Stir in the milk, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin pie spice. Turn heat to medium-low, cover, and continue cooking for 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the lid and stir in the vanilla and brown sugar. Continue cooking until the rice pudding, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until it has thickened, about 10 mins or so.
- Once thick, remove from heat. Discard the cinnamon sticks. Serve warm or cold, topped with a sprinkling of nuts and cinnamon.
