Learn how to make a mock rice pudding!
Rice pudding without the rice? Yes, please. We suggest adding even more cinnamon since it's packed with a mineral called chromium, which aids in metabolizing carbohydrates.
Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3/4 cup granular Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon blackstrap molasses
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup full fat cottage cheese
How it's made:
Whisk all of the ingredients except the cottage cheese in a medium bowl until well blended. Stir in the cottage cheese. Pour into a greased 1 1/2-quart casserole and bake at 350ยบ for 60-75 minutes until top is nicely browned and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Mine took 75 minutes to get done to my liking. I also gently stirred mine after 40 minutes so that the cottage cheese wouldn't settle on the bottom. I'm not sure if that made a difference or not because the pudding puffs up quite high as it bakes and then settles as it cools. Serve warm or cold.Makes 4 large or 6 small servingsDo not freeze!
* This isn't included in the counts but it adds a nice flavor. It only adds 2 carbs to the whole batch or about 1/2 carb more per serving.
