This is literally the easiest pudding in the world!

I know white pudding rice does not provide as much of a nutritional boost as brown rice. However, sometimes the 'healthy' alternatives just aren't as good as the original and, for the sake of both tradition and flavour, I have chosen to use white rice.

It is so important to enjoy what you are eating and sometimes you just have to bend the rules slightly! Having said that, this is a healthier version of regular rice pudding as shop-bought varieties tend to contain additives and plenty of sugar.

I have used coconut milk here (I use the brand Koko) and maple syrup as opposed to cow's milk and refined sugar. Almond milk would also work well and is nice and creamy.

There is something incredibly comforting about a warm bowl of rice pudding and a nice dollop of strawberry jam (ideally sugar-free) particularly at this time of year as the weather is turning.
