    This Pumpkin Rice Pudding is healthy, vegan, gluten-free and delicious! This pudding might look fancy but really is very simple to make.

    I was compensated by Success® Rice to create this recipe. However, like always, the opinions are entirely my own. Promise 🙂

    I know traditional rice puddings call for the rice to cook for 30-40 minutes before you add all of the good stuff.  I used Success® Boil in the Bag brown rice which saves time from measuring and cooking for that long.   Anything that saves me time?  I'm in!  And Success® brown rice is 100% whole grain and gluten-free so this is perfect for me to lighten up typical rice pudding.  I also love the fact that you simply place the bag in the water and it's the perfect texture after just 8-10 minutes.  And you can leave the cooked rice in the hot water for up to 30 minutes (with the heat off) before being served to keep it hot.  Genius! I appreciate easy. 🙂

    Of course, it is almost October and I knew I just had to make this pudding with fall flavors.  This pumpkin rice pudding was incredible!  And the house smelled pretty amazing too.  I am going to make it next time with apples, just to continue my fall theme.

    I only used half of the bag for this recipe (1 cup) and I used the remaining cup for dinner that night (stir-fry with rice!).  You can easily double this recipe to make more of it.  I didn't realize how fast this pudding would disappear!

      It's definitely time to Pumpkin All the Things!! I love rice pudding, but my favorite rice is steamed with a pat of butter and a little salt.

      Love this recipe and can't wait to try it! I love to make chicken and rice with using the chicken broth from roasting a chicken. I also love stir fry recipes with rice like you do! Another favorite with rice is my Greek Lemon Chicken Rice Soup. I have made up a pretty healthy version of that with using softened reduced fat cream cheese instead of all the egg yolks (in a traditional recipe) to help make it richer and to thicken it up a bit. REALLY GOOD!
