DIRECTIONS

INGREDIENTS

  • 3/4 cup long-grain white rice
  • 3 cups Original Almond Breeze Almond Milk
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/3 cup preferred butter or coconut oil, melted
  • Salted carmel sauce
  • 1 cup coconut sugar
  • 90g salted butter, cut up into cubes
  • 1/2 cup cream/coconut cream
  • 1 tsp salt

METHOD

  1. In a colander, rinse rice thoroughly under cold water.
  2. Put in lightly greased slow cooker.
  3. Add remaining ingredients, except for butter/coconut oil.
  4. Stir to combine.
  5. Pour butter/coconut oil over rice mixture.
  6. Cover and cook on HIGH for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, until rice has absorbed the liquid.
  7. When ready to serve, spoon into dessert bowls and top with caramel sauce.
  8. Preferred salted caramel sauce (or make your own!)
  9. Heat sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly with a high heat resistant rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
  10. Sugar will form clumps and eventually melt into a thick brown, amber-colored liquid as you continue to stir. Be careful not to burn.
  11. Once sugar is completely melted, immediately add the butter/coconut oil. Be careful in this step because the caramel will bubble rapidly when the butter is added.
  12. Stir the butter into the caramel until it is completely melted, about 2-3 minutes.
  13. Very slowly, drizzle in 1/2 cup of cream/coconut cream while stirring. Since the cream is colder than the caramel, the mixture will rapidly bubble and/or splatter when added.
  14. Allow the mixture to boil for 1 minute. It will rise in the pan as it boils.
  15. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of salt. Allow to cool down before using.
  16. Make ahead tip: You can make this caramel in advance. Make sure it is covered tightly and store it for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator. Warm the caramel up for a few seconds before using in a recipe.
