Simple Rice Cooker Rice Pudding

Recipe by MrSimpleChef on YouTubeAdded 9 November 2026.

5 minutes to prep, 30 to cook. A comforting rice pudding made entirely in a rice cooker. Creamy milk, a hint of ground nutmeg and cinnamon, and optional raisins create a sweet, nostalgic dessert perfect for a simple family treat.

Free. No account needed.

Method

  1. Rinse the rice briefly to remove surface starch.

  2. Place the rinsed rice and 2 cups of water in the rice cooker and start the cooking cycle.

  3. When the rice is cooked and the cooker switches to warm, add 4 cups of milk, 4 tablespoons of sugar, ground nutmeg and cinnamon to taste, and stir gently.

  4. Close the lid and set the cooker to the high‑heat (cook) setting again, allowing the mixture to thicken; check after a few minutes and stir, adding more liquid if needed.

  5. If using raisins, add them now and continue stirring until the pudding reaches a creamy consistency.

  6. Stir frequently toward the end to prevent boiling over, then turn off the cooker and let the rice pudding sit for a couple of minutes before serving.
