Notes
- Arborio rice: The usual rice for rice pudding is arborio or risotto rice as its a shorter grain that doesn't needing washing because we want those starches to thicken up the liquids.
- Milk: This needs a lot of milk and whole milk was used here for the ultimate creaminess in the pancakes. You could absolutely substitute or use non dairy milk here.
- Customize to your heart’s content: Feel free to add your favorite spices like cinnamon or nutmeg, or even mix in some raisins or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
- Make the rice pudding ahead: Simply refrigerate the rice pudding and take it out and allow it to come to room temperature for 15 minutes before making your batter.
