Crock Pot Rice Pudding
My husband LOVES rice pudding, but for some reason it’s not something we buy very often. Probably because I’m not as big of a fan, so I don’t prioritize it! A few weeks back he was out late working (physical labour kind of stuff!), and I knew he’d want something warm and tasty (and hearty!) when he got home. I also realized that we had some extra rice kicking around, so I immediately thought of rice pudding! However, I didn’t want all the work of standing over the stove top, so I googled rice pudding recipes for the crock pot. I found a ton of good recipes, but I came up with this one based on a bunch, and it was a big hit! The entire batch was gone in less than 24 hours (and it’s supposed to serve 8…).
Crock Pot Rice Pudding:
- 3/4 cup dried white rice (I used basmati rice, but any white kind will do)*
- 1 can of coconut milk (if you’d rather, you can use 2 cups of any other kind of milk, but creamier is better!)
- 1/2 can (or 1 cup) of water
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- A pinch of salt
- 2 cinnamon sticks (you could easily dash in 1/2-1 tsp. of ground cinnamon)
Combine all the ingredients into a lightly greased (I used butter) crock pot. Stir. Turn on high for 2.5 hours. I stirred mine every once in a while (maybe 2 or 3 times), but I don’t think it’s entirely necessary. ENJOY!!
*If you want to use brown rice, that’s no problem! Just increase the time to 3.5 hours.

This looks delicious! I love rice pudding & I love coconut milk! I definitely need to try this :)
My family loves rice pudding – but like you, I don’t like to make it in the heat of the summer. This is a great solution! Thanks for sharing!
This sounds really good, with the coconut milk, maple syrup and raisins…yum!
Rice pudding in the crock pot! This looks great. Sounds like a must try for me!

This was very delicious and an awesome treat after a long tiring day. Thanks again!
Sounds yummy! And cooking it in the crockpot is inspired.
My husband loves rice pudding too – but like you I’m not a big fan either. Your recipe sounds so nice though, I think that may well change! I like the idea of the coconut milk, and that it is cooked in a crock pot too!
We love rice pudding too so I’ll have to give this a try.
Yum! I am going to try this soon.
Hey Alison, I’m loving the new blog! =) One thing though… Not sure what’s up with it, but the title of your blog on my blog list is “My name is Alison & I live in Canada. I am married to a wonderful man and in my spare time I love to travel, cook, host and otherwise use my home as a haven of hospitality. I have been sharing my thoughts online for some time now, so please go ahead and search for a favourite recipe or travel tip! » Hospitality Haven” lol might wanna fix that if you can…? =)
