This coconutty brown rice pudding is laced with chai spices like cinnamon and cardamon. It’s warm, comforting and perfect for a cold autumn night.
The pudding is vegan and dairy free which is pretty awesome for such a creamy dessert. Or breakfast if you are so inclined…….. Plus it’s kind of healthy seeing as it’s brown rice right???
Try it with some seasonal fruit like stewed rhubarb or pears.
