Crockpot Rice Pudding is rich and creamy and ridiculously easy. Just toss all the ingredients into your slow cooker and it does all the work!
Creamy homemade rice pudding has been a favorite at my house since my boys were little. Some of us like it with cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top, some of us like it with a spoonful of jam. It’s a comforting dessert, but sometimes I add less sugar and we have it for breakfast.
The one thing I don’t love about making rice pudding is that you have to stand at the stove and stir it until it thickens. It’s not hard, it’s just time consuming. Well not anymore! With this recipe, you just stir everything together in your slow cooker and walk away.
How to make rice pudding in the slow cooker:
It really doesn’t get easier than this. Just dump raw rice, evaporated milk, milk, sugar, butter, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt into the slow cooker. Stir everything together, and turn on your slow cooker.
I’m usually in a hurry, so I always use the high setting. In my crock pot it takes just over 2 1/2 hours. You want to make sure you don’t overcook it, or it loses its creaminess and gets too thick.
One thing that’s different about this recipe than my traditional rice pudding is that it doesn’t contain eggs as a thickener. Starch in the rice is what thickens the pudding, so don’t rinse your rice before you add it.

I love the recipe! Very easy! I doubled the recipe and cooked for about 3.5 hours on high and once it was done it was thick so I just added the rest of the evaporated milk. So there was 24oz total in evaporated milk! But wouldn’t add it all in the beginning! Yummy I can’t wait to enjoy it with my family !
I have just made this and was done within 2.5 hours using pudding rice
Glad to hear it turned out for you Ian! 🙂
It didn’t work for me after 3 hrs rice was still hard
This didn’t work for me at all. Followed every step. Cooked it for hours on high and the rice was still hard. Made the house smell nice at least. Such a bummer.
Sorry it didn’t turn out. It could be that your slow cooker cooks hotter than mine. If the rice is still hard and the liquid is gone, you could add more milk and cook it a little longer.
