Honey-Orange Rice Pudding

I love pudding, any flavor, any type. I just love it.

Making pudding is a great way to use up milk that is close to it's expiration date, haha!

This is the creamiest rice pudding I have ever had! I love the orange flavor in it. The arborio rice gives it the nice texture. A quick, easy dessert!

Honey-Orange Rice Pudding

3 1/2 cups 2% milk

2/3 cup uncooked arborio rice

1/4 cup sugar

1/4 cup + 2 T. honey, divided

2 t. grated orange peel

1/4 t. salt

1 t. vanilla

1/4 t. cinnamon

In a large saucepan, bring the milk, rice, sugar, 1/4 cup honey, orange peel and salt to a boil. Reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes or until rice is tender and pudding in thickened, stirring occasionally.

Stir in vanilla, cinnamon and remaining honey. Serve warm or cold.
