Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup arborio rice
- 3 1/2 cups skim milk
- 1/2 cup fat free half & half
- pinch salt
- 4 tablespoons truvia or splenda or regular sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- 1/4 cup toasted almonds
Instructions
- In a large pot, melt butter and stir in arborio rice to coat grains. Pour in enough milk to cover the rice by 1/3 inch or so. Continuously stir the rice until the milk has been absorbed and mixture turns very thick. Continue this process until all milk has been added.
- Stir in half & half and Truvia until rice is cooked to your liking and the desired consistency is reached. Feel free to add in a few more splashes of milk to make the pudding thinner or cook it longer to have it thicker.
- Remove from heat and stir in almond extract and vanilla bean paste. Top with toasted almonds and serve warm.
