Ingredients
[ "3 cups unsweetened non-dairy milk (such as soy or almond)", "1 cup full-fat coconut milk (from a can)", "1 cup uncooked medium grain white rice", "½ cup raisins", "¼ cup maple syrup, plus more to taste", "1 teaspoon vanilla extract", "1 teaspoon orange zest", "1 teaspoon ground cinnamon", "½ teaspoon ground nutmeg", "2 tablespoons vegan butter", "½ teaspoon salt, or to taste" ]
Instructions
1. In a large pot, combine the non-dairy milk, coconut milk, rice, raisins, maple syrup, vanilla, orange zest, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir the ingredients together and place the pot over medium heat. 2. Bring the liquid to a boil. Lower the heat and allow the mixture to simmer, stirring occasionally and scraping the bottom of the pot with a spoon to remove any rice that sticks. 3. Cook for about 20 minutes, or until the rice reaches your desired thickness. 4. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the vegan butter and salt. 5. Taste and adjust the sweetness with additional maple syrup if desired. Let the pudding cool slightly, then serve warm or chilled.
