Ingredients

For the rice pudding

  • 1 cup medium grain rice, thoroughly washed
  • 6 cups of whole milk
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the apples

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 6 Fuji apples, peeled, cored and diced
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch™ cereal

Directions

  •  
    1
    To prepare the rice pudding: add the milk to a medium-sized pot with the cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Boil and add the washed rice. Cook at low heat for about 1 hour or until the rice is soft and tender. Stir from time to time.
  •  
    2
    Remove the cinnamon from the rice. Add the sugar. Cook for 20 minutes or until soft and creamy. Stir frequently to prevent sticking or burning.
  •  
    3
    Add the butter, condensed milk and vanilla, and then stir well. Remove from the heat. Cool in the refrigerator.
  •  
    4
    Melt the butter in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the apples, sugar and cinnamon. Cook until tender (stir occasionally) and the sugar becomes syrup, about 15 minutes. Cover the apples until you’re ready to serve.
  •  
    5
    Divide the rice pudding into the cups. Add half of the apples, half of the cereal and then cover with the rest of the apples. Repeat the layers with the rest of the ingredients. Finish with cereal and serve.
