This easy Instant Pot Rice Pudding can be made using your pressure cooker in just a few minutes. It is creamy, delicious and perfectly sweet.
One of the simplest dessert recipes, rice pudding can be amazingly creamy and delicious if made the right way. I like to call it comfort in a bowl! I also love it because it uses simple, everyday ingredients that I already keep in the pantry so making it only takes minutes when using my pressure cooker.
When thinking about desserts, don’t forget to think about using your Instant Pot. Cooking with pressure makes some moist and delicious sweet treats like this pumpkin cheesecake, or this amazing Instant Pot banana bread with icing recipe. It is nice to have an appliance that can sit on the counter and that is portable when making desserts.

Rice Pudding Toppings and Mix-ins
This Instant Pot Rice Pudding recipe is delicious on its own, but you can add toppings and mix-ins to make your own. I have been known to mix in raisins, fruit jam, cranberries, or nuts. I have also used many different toppings including bananas, granola, and graham crackers. Basically, your imagination is the only thing holding you back from your own custom rice pudding recipe.
This easy rice pudding recipe is just a basic version with a little cinnamon sprinkled on top.
