Milk rice with apples and cinnamon - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute the milk with almond, coconut, or oat milk for a dairy-free version. Keep in mind that the flavor and creaminess may vary slightly.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of milk to restore creaminess.
Yes! Use a plant-based milk, replace butter with coconut oil or vegan butter, and skip the cream or use a dairy-free alternative like coconut cream.
Short-grain white rice (like Arborio or sushi rice) is ideal for its creamy texture, but you can use jasmine or basmati for a slightly firmer result.
Freezing isn’t recommended, as the rice may become grainy and the apples mushy upon thawing. It’s best enjoyed fresh or refrigerated for short-term storage.
Cut the sugar by half or use a natural sweetener like maple syrup or honey. The apples’ natural sweetness also helps balance the dish.
Top with chopped nuts (like walnuts or almonds), a drizzle of caramel, or a dollop of yogurt for extra texture and flavor.
Absolutely! Pears, peaches, or berries work well. Adjust cooking time for softer fruits to avoid overcooking.
The recipe is naturally gluten-free—just ensure all packaged ingredients (like cinnamon) are certified gluten-free if needed.
