Instructions
Combine and bring to simmer
Add rice, water, coconut milk, and salt to a medium saucepan. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Cook slowly
Reduce heat to low and cook uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes stirring frequently to prevent sticking. The mixture should thicken gradually as the rice absorbs the liquid.
Add sweetener and spices
Stir in maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Cook for another 5 minutes until the pudding reaches your desired consistency.
Adjust texture
If the pudding is too thick stir in a splash of additional coconut milk or water. Remember it will thicken further as it cools.
Serve your way
Spoon into bowls and top with a dusting of cinnamon, fresh fruit, or a drizzle of maple syrup. Serve warm or refrigerate and serve cold.
