There’s something deeply comforting about a slow cooker rice pudding that simmers unattended while you go about your day—filling your home with the scent of cinnamon, vanilla, and warm dairy. And the best part? You don’t need pre-cooked rice or constant stirring. Just one simple mixture poured over raw short-grain rice, and your slow cooker does the rest.
This is old-fashioned comfort, reimagined for modern ease—creamy, custard-like, and perfectly spiced.
🍚 The Magic Mixture (5 Ingredients)
In a bowl, whisk together:
- 4 cups whole milk (or full-fat coconut milk for dairy-free)
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup raisins (optional, but classic)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
💡 Key: Use short-grain white rice (like Arborio or sushi rice)—it releases starch as it cooks, creating natural creaminess. Do not use instant or long-grain rice.
