Vanilla seeds add lovely perfumed speckles to this creamy toothsome classic. This pudding stiffens as it cools, so you might want to stir in more milk before serving.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 vanilla bean
  • 2-1/2 cups whole milk
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup short-grain rice
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp sliced dried apricots
  • 1/4 cup toasted slivered almonds or dried apricots

Preparation

Split vanilla bean and scrape out seeds. Reserve pod for another use. In small saucepan, heat milk with vanilla seeds just until bubbles form around edge of pan.

In saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; stir in rice. Stir in warm milk and sugar; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer, stirring often, until creamy, most of the liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, about 25 minutes.

Stir in apricots. (Make-ahead: Let cool; refrigerate in airtight container for up to 24 hours.) Heat through. Serve sprinkled with almonds.

Additional information : Substitution
Vanilla Extract Version: Omit vanilla bean. Stir 1-1/2 tsp (7 mL) vanilla extract along with apricots.
