Ready to go in 30 minutes, this dessert is versatile, punchy, and will leave you wanting more! Low maintenance, with a simmer time of 25 minutes, this Spiced Rice Pudding with Pistachios, Raspberries and Date Syrup can be adapted to suit your tastes. We love cinnamon, cardamom and nutmeg, but why not add bananas or dessicated coconut? Great for a post Sunday Roast dessert, or a weeknight treat, cook it up now!

We used whole milk and double cream but you could make it vegan with nut or oat milk and vegan cream! The double cream is also optional so leave it out for a healthier alternative!

We used our Stainless Steel Base Milk Pan for this recipe. Check out all the things we love about the range here.
