Ingredients
- 1 cup cashews
- 2 cups water
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave nectar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1/4 cup chia seeds (reserve)
- 1/4 cup raisins (reserve)
- 1/16 teaspoon pure almond extract (optional)
Recipe Directions
- 1. Put all ingredients (except the chia seeds and the raisins) in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth.
- 2. Place chia seeds and raisins in a large bowl. Pour the blended mixture on top of the chia seeds and rasins, mixing slowly and thoroughly.
- 3. Cover raw rice pudding mixture and refrigerate for at least one hour. The purpose of refrigerating and letting the mixture sit for at least an hour is to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid. (Chia seeds are similar to tapioca. They increase in size!) Ideally, let this recipe sit in fridge for 3 hours. Overnight is even better!
- 4. Stir thoroughly before serving.
The Rawtarian's Thoughts

Oh dear, another raw rice pudding recipe. I am starting to get a reputation as the type of girl who only eats chia pudding, lol.
Well, since I've discovered this raw rice pudding, the fact is true. I don't even need to leave the house as long as I have a batch of this old-fashioned rice pudding on hand!
This recipe really does taste like the traditional rice pudding that you may have had as a child growing up, complete with the plump raisins.
Let me know how this raw rice pudding recipe compares with what you're used to!

Yummy over sliced bananas! That brings me back to my childhood. We used to always have "bananas and cream" as a dessert, which was simply sliced bananas in a bowl full of milk.
Your idea of pouring this rice pudding over bananas is a great ide and I will try that the next time I make this recipe.

This is amazing. I love it with raisins. It's also my husband's favorite raw food. You are my hero.

Lol, so glad your husband likes it!! My husband does not really like puddings, but I love the texture of them! They're my comfort food.
You should definitely try this one, too, it is sooooooo good:

The raisins are nice. I might chop them next time.

Heehee, but I love the chunky raisins! That's what makes it rice puddingy for me! But they do kind of stick out like a sore thumb, lol. Just depends on whether you like sore thumbs :)

Oooh, sounds nice! I actually never really have currants, they are something I certainly don't keep on hand. However, I should pick some up the next time I go to the HFS, because they might be a nice addition to my raw food arsenal. Let me know if they are a good combo!

Uh-oh. I just found this rice pudding recipe, will try it with currants tomorrow as I prefer them to raisins. Like you LJ, I will probably not leave the house until I finish the bowl...

Glad you liked it!! Did you like the raisins in it? To me, the raisins give it a very traditional flavour...
