Instructions
Rinse the Rice:
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch and prevents the pudding from becoming too sticky.
Combine Ingredients:
Add the rinsed rice, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon to the slow cooker. Stir well to combine.
Cook:
Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The pudding is done when the rice is tender and the mixture has thickened to a creamy consistency.
Serve:
Give the pudding a final stir and serve warm. For a chilled version, let it cool and refrigerate for a few hours.

Dairy-Free: Use almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk instead of regular milk.

Spice It Up: Add a pinch of nutmeg, cardamom, or even a dash of cloves for extra warmth.
Toppings: Top with whipped cream, toasted nuts, or fresh fruit for added texture and flavor.
