Notes
There you have it - the absolute simplest rice pudding you will ever make.
I used pudding rice which I think is mostly a UK product, but any short-grain rice such as arborio will work well. I have even used long grain and basmati and both still work well.
You can add a pinch of nutmeg if you like or maybe a few raisins. Vanilla is also a nice addition, but the recipe is great just the way it is.

Hi Andy,
Thanks for your recipe for instant pot easy rice pudding. Your instructions will help me to not make any mistakes. I am going to suggest that my sister makes this dessert for me.
I also read your previous recipe for Instant pot chocolate cake and it sounds delicious. I have bookmarked your site and look forward to also reading your other recipes.
Hi yoge, I'm sure you will love it and your correct - the chocolate cake is delicious!
Hey that’s a great recipe you have there. Thanks for sharing. Your simplified version of instant pot rice pudding is awesome. I can not wait to try it. I am only a beginner cook, but I think I should be able to manage this. I noticed in your video that you added vanilla seeds, but I only have essence - will this be ok? Thanks again for such an easy recipe.
You don’t need to add vanilla at all if you don’t want, but 1 tsp of essence would be fine. I’m sure you will enjoy it.
Hi Andy,
I've just unpacked my Instant Pot Duo Crisp with Ultimate Lid, and Rice Pudding is the first thing I want to make but I don't want to have to mess around with eggs so your recipe looks ideal.
A quick question though. I live alone so 6 servings will probably be too much. Will this recipe scale down to say 3 servings if I halve all the ingredients?
Kind Regards,
Hi Ian, sorry for the late reply, but yes the recipe should scale down perfectly, Regards, Andy
