Fruit salad with coconut rice pudding
With this recipe, you have the best of both worlds: the freshness of a fruit salad and the creamy of a rice pudding. It takes a bit of time to make but it’s worth it! You can serve the rice pudding cold or hot, and eat it for breakfast, or as a snack or dessert. Instead of the coconut milk you can of course choose a different plant milk, and there is also plenty to vary with the spices; for example, add gingerbread spices instead of the cinnamon, or use some anise for a completely different aroma! You can also easily replace the raisins with other dried fruit, such as cranberries or bits of dates. Taste as you go and make up your favourite pudding!
