Rice Pudding Calories

Rice pudding is a dessert made with rice and milk, or water, along with a few more ingredients.

The total amount of calories in this dessert will depend on the ingredients you choose to add in it. And since everyone has different recipes that they follow, calculating the total number of calories can become tough. So what you should concentrate on are the ingredients which you use in the recipe itself.

According to their quantities, you can add the calories of all the ingredients, and then figure out the total calories. Now let's say you are making rice pudding for 4, and are making it with butter, low-fat milk, bowl of rice, and sugar―the recipe has about 290 calories.

On the other hand, if you use sugar substitute instead of castor sugar, 2% reduced-fat milk instead of whole milk, and low-fat butter instead of butter, then the calories will reduce considerably; around 102 calories. And if you add ½ cup of raisins in, the calories will then be about 193.

If you're a fan of rice puddings but would like to keep the calories as low as possible, then these recipes will do the trick.

Ingredients

• 2% milk, 4 cups
• Splenda, 3 tablespoons
• Light butter, 1 teaspoon
• Vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon
• Cinnamon powder, ¼ teaspoon
• Rice, ¾ cup

Directions
First we preheat the oven to 275º F. In a bowl mix rice, milk, and Splenda together. Transfer this mixture inside a baking dish and place in the oven to cook for about 3 hours. In between, stir the pudding so that the rice doesn't stick in the bottom. If the pudding is drying out, you can add more milk to maintain consistency.

After the pudding is cooked, remove the dish from the oven and add butter, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Mix properly, serve the pudding either hot, or at room temperature.
