Dried Oregon cherries soaked in rum dot this light, creamy rice pudding. We developed this recipe for our guests with dietary concerns who still want a treat. Sugar-free and fat-free. What’s not to love?
Ingredients:
6 cups fat-free milk
3/4 cup uncooked arborio rice
sugar substitute equivalent to 3/4 cup sugar
1/2 vanilla bean
1/2 cup dried cherries
2 tablespoons dark rum
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup fat-free whipped topping
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the milk, rice and sugar substitute. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean; add bean and seeds to milk mixture. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 40-45 minutes or until rice is tender and pudding is thickened, stirring occasionally.
2. Transfer to a small bowl; discard vanilla bean. Stir in the cherries, rum and salt. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. Fold in whipped topping before serving. Yield: 6 servings.
