Forget regular rice pudding, this Baked White Chocolate Rice Pudding is to die for!!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recently had a craving for rice pudding, but for some reason all I could think of for flavour was White Chocolate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regular white chocolate is pretty high in cals, but White Chocolate Option is pretty low and great for adding that white chocolate taste. I sometimes add it to vanilla yoghurt, if I fancy something decadent to dip some fruit in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I figured it would be great added to some creamy milk rice for a Baked White Chocolate Rice pudding and boy was I right!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those wondering what White Chocolate Options is, it is basically a low calorie hot drink, like hot chocolate, you can get various other flavours, including Milk Chocolate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now I have to add, the ingredients in the White Chocolate options are not ideal, and most are things I would usually avoid, but for an odd treat, I don't worry too much about it, as I eat relatively clean the majority of the time and white chocolate in any form isn't really healthy anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don't like white chocolate, you can use the milk chocolate options, or even some 100% cocoa to keep this super healthy, but you will have to taste test and add a sweetener of choice, as 100% cocoa is pretty bitter and not sweetened at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don't even have to add any chocolate flavour, just keep it as vanilla flavour, or add a bit of cinnamon or even some sultanas for a nice variation. Just be aware if you are varying the flavour, you may need to adjust the sweetness, so taste test before baking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My choice of sweetener in this Baked White Chocolate Rice Pudding is Sukrin Gold<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>which is a great natural tasting sweetener and perfect as a brown sugar replacement. I have tried many different types of sweetener in the past trying to find one that is natural and tastes natural and I think this is it. I usually just use some honey or maple syrup, but it's nice to know I can now use this and reduce the calories even further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sukrin<\/span> <\/b><\/span>can be ordered on Amazon,<\/strong><\/a> <\/span>and from various health food stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this Baked White Chocolate Rice Pudding, I also use 2% milk instead of skimmed, because it is slightly more creamy in this recipe and rice pudding just has to be creamy right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Baked White Chocolate Rice Pudding is delicious in a bowl just as it is, or topped with some fruit of you choice. I love raspberries or a dollop of jam is just perfect!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy this for breakfast or dessert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you prefer a traditional rice pudding, skip the baking part and just simmer on a low heat on the stove till creamy and it's ready to serve. Whichever way you make it, you'll will love this rice pudding dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
