• ½ teaspoon salt

• ½ cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• ½ cup pumpkin puree/li>
• ¼ cup golden raisins (optional)
• ¼ cup chopped pecans (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the rice, water and salt in a large pot over medium heat. Let it simmer until rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Stir occasionally to avoid sticking.

2. Add the milk, sugar, pumpkin pie spice and pumpkin puree. Stir to combine. Once it comes to a boil, add the raisins.

3. Let simmer until it reaches a pudding like consistency, about 10-15 minutes. Turn off the heat and cover to let cool down.

4.Top with chopped pecans before serving.

NOTES

• Cook the pumpkin spice pudding in a dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pan. It will distribute weight more evenly and the pudding will be less likely to stick.
• Stir the pot occasionally to stop the rice from sticking. Frequent stirring also helps to make it nice and creamy.
• Rice pudding is more on the thick side. If you prefer yours not as thick, simply add a little more water and/or milk when cooking.
• Finish your easy rice pudding with chopped pecans or some whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Delicious!
