Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding

Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding is a coconut lovers dream, packed with creamy and delicious coconut flakes, coconut milk and coconut cream.

Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding

Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding

This rich and creamy Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding, will make you the star of any party.

Making rice pudding in an Instant Pot, Ninja Foodi or Pressure Cooker is so easy and quick.

I love anything coconut. My husband, on the other hand, does not like coconut, but he loves this Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding and he actually loves my Pressure Cooker Thai Triple Coconut Rice, as long as I don’t add the coconut flakes; it’s a texture thing.

If you prefer a regular traditional rice pudding, you might like my Instant Pot Cinnamon Raisin Rice Pudding, or if you are feeling a little frisky, you might like my Pressure Cooker Piña Colada Rice Pudding, made with Coconut Rum!

Ingredients for Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding

  • Arborio Rice – makes for a very creamy Rice Pudding.
  • Demerara Sugar – gives the Rice Pudding a more intense flavor, however white sugar (which is a bit of a cloying sweetness) is fine to use in a pinch.
  • Heavy Cream or Milk
  • Crème de Coco
  • Coconut Milk
  • Coconut Flakes
  • Eggs
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Cinnamon
  • Salt – salt makes the sweetness stand out nicely.

If you don’t have Arborio Rice, use a short grain, starchy rice. The Crème de Coco really gives this pudding a fresh coconut taste. A little dash of cinnamon helps to bring out the coconut flavor.

 

Rinse Rice

Any time you use rice, make sure to wash it well with cool water.

I have seen real honest to goodness rice washing baskets, but I use my regular ole steamer basket/strainer, and it works just fine and dandy.

 

A Pinch of Cinnamon Adds Depth of Flavor

A Pinch of Cinnamon Adds Depth of Flavor

Just a teeny dash of cinnamon will help to bring out the coconut flavor.

 

Whisk Eggs with Cream

Whisk Eggs with Cream

Whisk together eggs and cream very well.

 

Stir in Sugar, Eggs and Milk

Make sure the eggs are completely mixed in the milk and the sugar.

How to Eat Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding

  • Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding can be enjoyed cold, hot or warm.
  • When the rice pudding is warm, the consistency is a bit looser.
  • Once the Instant Pot Coconut Rice Pudding cools, it becomes thick and firm.

Let it cool and then stir in the coconut, or, top each serving with coconut. Some people may prefer their Coconut Rice Pudding without coconut pieces.

Top with Perfect Homemade Whipped Cream, toasted and/or sweetened coconut flakes and a cherry, if you like.

Cuisine: All

Total Time: 7 minutes
Servings: 8 servings

Author: Jill Selkowitz

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Arborio Rice rinsed
  • 1 1/2 cups Fresh Water
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • Pinch Ground Cinnamon
  • 14 oz Coconut Milk 1 can
  • 1 Tablespoon Coconut Crème or to taste
  • 3/4 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/2 cup Demerara Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs whisked well
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Tablespoon Sweetened Coconut Flakes (or Toasted Coconut Flakes)
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Whisk together coconut milk, cream and eggs until eggs are frothy.
  • Add water, rice, whisked eggs/cream, sugar, coconut crème, vanilla, salt and cinnamon to cooking pot..
  • Lock on lid and close pressure valve.  Cook at high pressure for 5 minutes. When beep sounds, wait 10 minutes and then release the rest of the pressure.
  • Remove lid and let sit for 15 minutes to allow rice pudding to thicken.  If rice pudding is too thin for your taste, push the Simmer button and simmer until desired thickness, but remember, the rice will continue to absorb the liquid and thicken as it cools.  Once the pudding has cooled down, stir in the coconut flakes.
  • Serve with a dollop of whipped cream, sprinkled with Toasted/Sweetened Coconut Flakes, maybe some pineapple and a cherry, if desired.

Notes

Rice Pudding will thicken as it cools, so if you prefer a thinner pudding, use less cream.
Eat warm or put in refrigerator to chill.
For a firmer rice texture, cook rice just 4 minutes.
