Carmelized Rice Pudding Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Cook the Rice

   In a medium saucepan, combine the short-grain rice and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

2. 2

   Prepare the Pudding

   Add almond milk, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the cooked rice. Stir well and cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and becomes creamy, about 20-25 minutes.

3. 3

   Caramelize the Pecans

   In a separate skillet over medium heat, toast the chopped pecans until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Add apricot marmalade and stir until the pecans are well-coated and the marmalade is slightly caramelized.

4. 4

   Combine and Serve

   Spoon the rice pudding into serving bowls and top with the caramelized pecans. Drizzle any remaining marmalade sauce over the top and serve warm.
