Butter Pecan Rice Pudding (Instant Pot)

This is a quick and easy recipe if you own an Instant Pot. So quick that I forgot to take pictures or film it. Lol!

The inspiration for this recipe came from my sister who called me up from NYC and said, “Can you open a place like Rice to Riches in Texas? I love the butter pecan rice pudding”. I might be paraphrasing but that was the essence of what she was asking. If you have never been to Rice to Riches, it is a place that serves many flavors of rice pudding. I decided to try and make her butter pecan rice pudding in the Instant Pot. I figured it would be an easy recipe since I wouldn’t have to watch milk over boiling on the stovetop.

Here is how I made it:
