Creamy, peanut buttery comfort food.
High in both fiber and protein, peanut butter rice pudding is one of those easy desserts that can be made with just a few ingredients, no blender, and no difficult cooking techniques. It’s super easy to customize if you’re craving, say, chocolate chip peanut butter rice pudding.
Now why would anyone ever be craving that? 😉
Peanut Butter Rice Pudding
(serves 4-6)
- 1 cup uncooked brown or white rice (170g)
- 2 1/2 cups milk of choice (600g)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup peanut butter (depending on desired richness)
- 2/3 cup water (160g)
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- sweetener of choice (such as scant 1/3 cup sugar of choice or 1/4 tsp uncut stevia)
- optional variations: Stir in some chocolate chips or swirl in your favorite jelly or fresh berries
Combine rice, salt, and milk of choice in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. When it comes to a complete boil, lower to a simmer and cover. Simmer, covered, until rice is thick and fluffy. This will take around 10-40 minutes, depending on the type of rice you use. Then stir in the peanut butter and the 2/3 cup water and return to a boil. When it comes to a full boil, turn off the heat but leave covered until the water is absorbed and the rice gets thick and fluffy (about another 20 minutes). Stir, then add all remaining ingredients. Eat warm or cold. Add the chocolate chips immediately if you want them melted; or stir in after the pudding is cold if you’d prefer the chips stay intact.

Rice pudding – want!
Peanut butter – want!
Everything in one bowl creamed up with some lovely almond milk – want even more!
This looks fantastic Katie, a great way of indulging whilst getting some healthy fats and calcium packed into your day ^ ^ A proper pick-me-up! x
Hi CCK,
Looks delicious! Also – I love the blue spoons you have pictured! May I ask where you bought them from?
Thanks,

Rice pudding in my opinion is even tastier than oatmeal *gasp* 😉 Now you’ve added peanut butter… I don’t see how it can get any better.
This looks great! I’ve been eating the same two things for breakfast every day for what feels like months – Greek yogurt or an English muffin with peanut butter – and it’s getting boring. This could be a nice change, especially with fresh berries on top.
Um, this is so simple and delicious and perfect for when I have leftover brown rice. Terrific breakfast when I need a change from oatmeal. Would work with leftover quinoa too I am sure!
YES I am on strict elimination diet and brown rice pudding is one of the things I can eat and enjoy for breakfast 🙂 i made brown rice one with just almond milk coconut sugar and cinnamon. made so much, ate it 4 days. did not get bored with it. made apple compote to poor over and it was awesome. love your posts, Katie!!
Can this be made in a rice cooker.
I had the same question.
I made it in my rice cooker, and it worked fine. But the amount of time would depend on your specific cooker.
This looks delicious! And I really like the photos you took, they make it look extra yummy. Thanks for all of your wonderful recipes, Katie 🙂
That’s what I like about you Katie, you never stop to amaze me with all your delicious recipes! I will try this peanut butter rice pudding for sure!
