  • 2 cups milk, divided 
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2/3 cup raisins
  • 1 tablespoon butter or coconut oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Cinnamon, nutmeg optional

 Bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil. Add rice, salt and stir. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

Add 1 1/2 cups milk. Cook over medium heat until thick and creamy
about 12 minutes. 
 
Combine 1/2 Cup milk with raisins, and egg.  Cook approximately 2 minutes longer.  Add sugar or sweetener.  I use 1/4 C raw sugar and 3 tsp. Stevia at the end of cooking. Be sure rice is fully cooked or pudding will get hard from sugar.  Stays smooth and creamy with this procedure. Ready to eat for breakfast or dessert anytime!
 
NOTE:  Optional: You may put this in the oven for the last steps and brown it for 10-15 minutes. Top with cinnamon, nutmeg if desired. Beautiful and Delicious!

Coconut Treats

1/8 cup chopped nuts (almonds or pecans are good) (optional)

2 teaspoons unsweetened coconut flakes; 4-5 teaspoons if rolling in coconut flakes

1 tablespoon Virgin coconut oil; melted or softened if hard

1 teaspoon ground flax seeds

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 – 1/2 teaspoon Stevia® (sweeten to taste)

1/4 teaspoon almond extract

1/8 teaspoon RealSalt® or Himalayan Pink Salt

Set the chopped nuts and 2-3 teaspoons of the coconut flakes aside, if rolling the coconut balls in the mixture.  Or you may combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix well.  Form the mixture into a shape similar to a flattened macaroon and freeze.  The ingredients freeze in about 5 minutes.  The coconut treat will pop right out of the bowl and you can eat it like a cookie.  Or you can divide the ingredients into two or three small balls.  Mix together the chopped nuts and remaining coconut flakes on a flat plate and roll the balls in the mixture; freeze for at least 5 minutes.
