Bowl of creamy rice pudding topped with soft diced apple and a dusting of cinnamon.

Ingredients

  • 120 g pudding rice
  • 600 ml lactose-free milk or oat drink
  • 1 small mild apple, peeled
  • 1 pinch cinnamon
  • 1 tsp acacia honey
  • 1 pinch salt

Method

  1. Bring the rice, milk or oat drink and salt to a boil.
  2. Cook over very low heat for about 25 minutes, stirring regularly.
  3. Dice the apple and soften it with a little water.
  4. Fold in the apple, sweeten lightly if desired and finish with a little cinnamon.

Why this recipe is gentle

The apple is peeled and cooked soft rather than eaten raw, and the pudding uses lactose-free milk or oat drink with no added fat. Sweetness comes from a touch of honey rather than anything sharp.

Tips

  • Apple, cinnamon and dairy are individual, so use the cinnamon lightly or leave it out.
  • Choose oat drink or lactose-free milk if dairy is a trigger for you.
  • Cook the apple until very soft and serve the pudding warm.
