Rice Pudding

I first was introduced to a cookbook called Moosewood Cookbook by Mollie Katzen on Carrie's Kitchen Creations after seeing all her recipes from this cookbook, I decided to check it out from the library. I LOVE it, it's now on my Christmas list. I decided to give a try to the rice pudding recipe tonight though!

This was SOOO good, I can't wait to get the cookbook and try more recipes in there!

Stovetop Rice Pudding (From: Moosewood Cookbook)

• 1 C rice
• 3 1/2 C milk (I used 1 %)
• 5 tbs sugar
• 1 tbs honey
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• nutmeg
• cinnamon for sprinkling on top

Place rinsed and cleaned rice in a saucepan with 3 C milk. Bring to a boil. Cover and lower heat as much as possible. Simmer until rice is tender.

When rice is tender, stir in sugar,cinnamon, nutmeg, honey and vanilla.

Remove about 1 C of the rice and put with extra 1/2 C of milk in blender. Puree and return to rest of rice. Mix well.

Serve with a pinch of cinnamon sprinkled over top.
