Simple and Healthy Choc Black Rice Pudding
Ingredients
Nourishing
- 1 cup short grain Black Forbidden Foods rice
- 3 cups unsweetened @nuttybruce or homemade Almond Milk
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 pinch of Himalayan Sea Salt
- 1/4 cup pure Maple or Pureharvest rice malt Syrup
- 2 tbsp raw cacao powder
Optional toppings
- berries
- cacao nibs
- vegan dark chocolate chips
- extra drizzle of maple syrup
Preparation
In a medium pot add the rice, almond milk, cinnamon, and sea salt
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, and place a lid on the pot
Cook for about an hour, or until the rice is tender – don’t be alarmed as your cooking water will turn black - you will need to stir the mixture every now and then to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot
Once the rice is tender, remove the pot from the heat and stir in the maple syrup and cacao powder
Use your eyes as a guide - if the pudding is looking too thick you can thin it out with a little more almond milk
Serve this dish warm or allow to cool before putting in the refrigerator to chill and have in the morning. Serve topped with berries and cacao nibs or chocolate chips for some added crunch
