Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Bring water and rice to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.

Step 2

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg; stir. Add apples; cook and stir until apples have softened, about 10 minutes. Set aside.

Step 3

Stir 1 1/2 cups milk into rice mixture; cook until hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in 1/8 cup brown sugar until well combined; cook until thick and creamy, 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in cooked apples, remaining 1/2 cup milk, and beaten egg; cook, stirring constantly, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Off heat, stir in 1 tablespoon butter and vanilla extract. Serve warm.
