Children - Rice pudding with apple (flavored) in Multicooker by Eugenia F. - Recipia

Rice pudding with apple in a multicooker is a simple dessert, especially suitable for children when you want a homemade sweet treat without the hassle of constant stirring in a pot. The rice cooks together with milk and sugar, and at the end, apple, dried fruits, and flavors are added. The coconut changes its texture and taste without complicating the recipe. Quick info Preparation time: not specified in the original recipe Cooking time: 40 minutes Total time: approximately 40 minutes, plus cooling time Servings: not specified; depends on the amount placed in each mold Difficulty: easy Recipe type: multicooker dessert, suitable for children Ingredients 1 liter of milk 1 cup of rice 3 tablespoons of sugar 100 g of coconut 1 tablespoon of dried fruits 1 apple rum essence, to taste 1 pinch of ginger 1 pinch of nutmeg 1 pinch of allspice vanilla, to taste Preparation method 1. Place the milk, rice, and sugar in the multicooker pot. Gently stir to distribute the ingredients. 2. Set the Rice program for 40 minutes. 3. Add the coconut after the program starts and stir gently. There’s no need to stir continuously; the multicooker takes care of the cooking. 4. After about 25-30 minutes into the program, add the dried fruits, rum essence, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and vanilla. 5. Peel the apple and cut it into small cubes. Add it to the pot after the flavors and dried fruits. 6. Let the program finish. When the rice pudding is ready, pour the mixture into molds and let it cool before serving. 7. Serve the dessert plain. Other fruits can also be used in the recipe, depending on what you have on hand. It’s best for the apple to be cut into similarly sized cubes so that the pieces are evenly distributed throughout the dessert. It’s not advisable to add it at the beginning, as the source recipe suggests adding it towards the end, along with the flavors and dried fruits. Why I make this recipe often I love it because it’s prepared in a single pot and doesn’t require the constant supervision that stovetop rice pudding does. It’s an easy-to-adapt option, especially when I have an apple that needs to be used up and want a dessert suitable for children. The coconut, vanilla, and spices provide flavor without needing many ingredients. Plus, the dessert can be poured directly into molds and left to cool, making it practical for serving. Tips Stick to the 40-minute Rice program and add the apple at the indicated stage, after about 25-30 minutes. This way, the cubes remain in the mixture and aren’t introduced at the beginning of the cooking process. Gently stir at the beginning and after adding the ingredients. The rice, milk, and sugar should be well distributed, but there’s no need for repeated stirring during the program. The amount of rum essence and vanilla can be adjusted to taste. For a dessert aimed at children, it’s preferable to use them sparingly. The dessert should be poured into molds while it’s still freshly cooked, then left to cool. As it cools, the texture may become more cohesive than when it’s taken out of the pot. Substitutions The apple can be replaced or complemented with other fruits, as the recipe allows for different fruits. However, the source does not specify quantities or different times for these, so it’s safer to add them at the same stage designated for the apple. Dried fruits can be swapped for other dried fruits, keeping the quantity at 1 tablespoon. If you use a sweeter variety, keep in mind that the dessert also contains sugar. Variations You can change the combination of flavors using ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and vanilla in the indicated quantities without altering the base recipe. The rum essence can be kept for a stronger flavor or used in a smaller amount. The fruits can vary depending on the season and the preferences of those eating the dessert. In the basic recipe, the apple is added peeled and cut into cubes. Another simple option is to pour the dessert into molds of different sizes. The composition doesn’t change, just the way it is portioned and served. Serving ideas Rice pudding with apple is served after it has cooled. It can be placed in individual molds or in a larger dish, to be divided later. For children, small molds are easier to serve. If you’re preparing it for multiple people, you can use molds of different sizes without altering the preparation steps. Frequently asked questions Can I use round-grain rice? The recipe mentions a cup of rice without specifying the type. You can use the rice you have for rice pudding, maintaining the same quantity and multicooker program. When should the coconut be added? The coconut is added after you have placed the milk, rice, and sugar in the pot and set the Rice program. The dried fruits, rum essence, flavors, and apple are added later, after about 25-30 minutes. Can I use other fruits instead of apple? Yes. The recipe indicates that other fruits can be used. They should be added at the same stage designated for the apple, but the exact quantity and timing for each type of fruit are not specified. Do I need to stir the rice during the program? At the beginning, the ingredients are stirred gently. The recipe does not require repeated stirring during the program, so it’s enough to follow the steps indicated by the multicooker. How long should it be left to cool? The source does not specify an exact time. The rice pudding is poured into molds and left to cool before serving. The time depends on the size of the molds and the temperature at which you want to serve it. Nutritional values The values are estimates, as the recipe does not specify the type of milk, the exact size of the rice cup, the amount of fruit used in place of the apple, or the number of servings. For the entire quantity, roughly calculated with a standard cup of rice, about 1 liter of regular milk, 3 tablespoons of sugar, 100 g of coconut, one apple, and 1 tablespoon of dried fruits, the dessert can have approximately: 2,100-2,300 kcal 380-410 g of carbohydrates 35-45 g of protein 75-90 g of fat If the dish is divided into six servings, one serving would have approximately 350-385 kcal, 63-68 g of carbohydrates, 6-8 g of protein, and 12-15 g of fat. These are rough estimates, not exact nutritional values. The coconut contributes the most to the fat content, while the milk, rice, and sugar contribute to the carbohydrate intake. Storage and reheating Rice pudding with apple should be stored in the refrigerator, in covered molds or in a sealed container. Since the recipe contains milk and fruit, it’s recommended to keep it cold and consume it within a short time. When reheating, the texture may become denser than when the dessert is freshly made. It can be warmed gently, depending on the appliance used, without letting it dry out. The dessert can also be consumed cold, as specified in the recipe.
