Very good recipe. I did add brown sugar, and instead of using blueberries I used bananas. Has the consistency of oatmeal but made with brown rice instead.
Easy, creamy, and delicious (Even with the egg!)
I’ve made the recipe as it stands and it is wonderful!! Today, I really went “out on a limb,” though. Instead of brown rice, I used a cup of frozen riced cauliflower. 1tbsp of maple syrup instead of honey (personal preference). Replaced the blueberries with unsweetened dried cherries. Added almond extract and some blanched almonds as topping. A healthier version that was still terrific – give it a try!!!
Amazing breakfast!! I tried it without the the egg and it was okay, but with the egg is was amazingly thick, creamy and delicious I improvised by using some cherries I had in the fridge and dried blueberries. I also used macadamia milk and maple syrup, and used pie spice instead of just cinnamon. Definitely will make this again!
I never knew that brown rice could be so delicious
Yum, yum! Dessert for breakfast! I used dried cranberries and was liberal with the honey, cinnamon and vanilla. So good.
Great recipe! I also was a little hesitant about adding the egg but it came out wonderfully delicious. My in-laws loved it too and asked why I didn’t make more! I don’t like a lot of dairy so I made mine with half whole milk and half water, and omitted the butter (although strangely, I didn’t see in the instructions where to add the butter – or the vanilla extract, for that matter). Still came out nice and creamy. Also I added the honey after it was all cooked, as I heard you destroy the good health properties of honey of you heat it past room temp. I had some candied pecans so broke some up and sprinkled them on top just before serving. Yum!
Very good, everyone liked it.
It’s OK. But a bit gloopy. I would rather have porridge with oatmeal and fry leftover brown rice with veggies and egg.
This was a good use of leftover rice! I used fresh blueberries and maple syrup instead of honey, both of which worked out great-I love how adaptable this recipe is!! One thing I noticed on some reviews, is that they left out the egg. USE THE EGG!!! It changes the texture and taste completely!! Good without the egg, fabulous with the egg! I would take a picture, but it’s already gone. 😉
I was trying to find a recipe for a brown rice porridge that we were served in a fine hotel in Chicago – this one really did the trick. I added raisins instead of blueberries, and then stirred in chopped walnuts right before serving. I recommend using short grain brown rice, as is is more “porridgy.” Otherwise a fantastic recipe!
I used about half brown rice and half white rice, since that was what I had in the fridge. I also substituted coconut cream for half the milk just to give it a more interesting flavor. (It was so good I might use all coconut milk or cream next time!) I only used about half the butter, and I left out the dried blueberries since I didn’t have any. It probably would have been even better with them (or I’m sure raisins or Craisins would work just as well), but the result was still delicious. I appreciate that it wasn’t too sweet.
I’m rating to comment. I’ve not made it. However, I just finished making a brown rice breakfast for myself using leftover brown rice (from making my dog’s food!). I wanted to offer this comment for those who want to make this a staple: Pressure cook your brown rice using 1 part rice to 2 parts water for 20 minutes on high; natural release method. It makes terrific brown rice for you to use in any way that you like. For breakfast, this offers an nutritious and toothsome alternative to other whole grain cereals. If you start with brown rice, make this cereal YOUR OWN with your palate-pleasing milk/dried or fresh fruit/nuts, sweeteners and spices. Use the microwave and cover your dish to plump and make speedy. I just finished mine with almond milk, a dash of cinnamon, raisins and walnuts. Thank you for introducing many readers to the benefits of brown rice for breakfast.
Made mine with rice milk. I’m not a big fan of dried fruit so I made it into more of an Asian style breakfast. Used ginger powder 1/2 tsp or so, candied ginger pieces to taste, maple syrup for the honey, and coconut oil instead of the butter. (Also making up a pot of green tea to complete my Asian morning :))Came out very good plus it’s gluten free and dairy free for those interested. I will definitely make it again with my version. The only issue was that I had to boil it for a lot longer (probably 20 mins on high heat or longer) to get it to a porridge-like consistency and not a soup. This I probably because the rice milk is a lot thinner and has less fat content than 2% milk.
I gave this a 4 star as it just didn’t shout awesome to me. It was my first time making porridge or trying it for that matter. I did make it healthy using almond milk and I used dried mixed berries to make it pretty. I did add some extra cinnamon as I love to use cinnamon. I will try some more recipes but this will probably be made again.
I made this with cranberries instead of blueberries and coconut milk instead of regular; it was good. I just would not add the egg next time. Wasn’t a fan of the texture.
Excellent alternative to oatmeal. I used 1/4 cup real maple syrup instead of the honey and added 1/2 a chopped fresh peach along with the dried blueberries. Forgot the butter and didn’t miss it. Also added some nutmeg to the cinnamon. Quick easy, and VERY tasty.
This was really good! We used dried cranberries in place of the dried blueberries and served it with some cream and maple syrup on top. Yum!
Just got home from the Chinese restaurant with leftover brown rice. Searched the site, saw the reviews and decided to try this recipe. Absolutely delicious way to use leftover rice. So versatile use your favorite fruit and the sweetener of your choice. I used cranberries and blackberries as that is what I had. Ate some hot, was so good, just letting it cool and will have for breakfast tomorrow. This is definitely a keeper.
I’ve never had porridge before so I was sceptical but it turned out great. I used almond milk instead of 2% milk which helped with minimizing the tart taste. I did add a teaspoon of brown sugar. I will definitely make again however I will add apples and nut.
I look forward to making this every time I have rice. I’m obsessed with it! It is delicious. I have made it as is, and with a variety of substitutions. I have used white rice. I also have used coconut, almond, and soy instead of the milk. Many different fresh, frozen, and dried fruits, or preserves can be used instead of the blueberries. Fresh and frozen (thawed) are best added at the end. And any sugar or syrup can replace the honey. Also it can be made without the fruits or sweetener, and those things can be served on the side so people have choices. Oh and I always add the egg. You are missing out if you don’t.
