This vanilla rice pudding is one of my go to desserts whenever I want something comforting but don't have hours to spend in the kitchen. Ready in just 45 minutes from start to finish, it's perfect for busy weeknights or unexpected guests. The beauty of rice pudding is how economical it is to make, since you probably have most of these ingredients already at home. Plus, the raisins add natural sweetness and fiber, so you're getting a little nutritional boost with every spoonful. It's creamy, warming, and absolutely delicious served either warm or chilled.
