Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In the inner pot of your Instant Pot, combine 1 3/4 cups of almond milk, orange juice, Arborio rice, and sea salt. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step
4 mins

Seal the Instant Pot, ensuring the valve is set to 'Sealing'. Select the 'Manual' or 'Pressure Cook' setting and set the timer for 4 minutes on high pressure. (Cook time: 4 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, carefully release any remaining pressure using the quick-release valve. (Release time: 10 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/4 cup of almond milk, lightly beaten egg, and orange extract until well combined. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

05

Step
1 mins

Gently stir in 1/2 cup of the cooked rice into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully incorporated. This tempers the egg and prevents curdling. (Prep time: 1 minute)

06

Step
1 mins

Pour the egg-rice mixture back into the Instant Pot. Select the 'Sauté' function. Add the cream of coconut and freshly grated orange zest. (Prep time: 1 minute)

07

Step
2 mins

Cook, stirring constantly, until the egg is set and the pudding has thickened slightly, about 2 minutes. Be careful not to overcook; you want a creamy consistency. (Cook time: 2 minutes)

08

Step

Serve warm, garnished with toasted coconut flakes and fresh orange slices for an elegant presentation.

For a richer flavor, substitute full-fat coconut milk for part of the almond milk.
If you prefer a sweeter pudding, add a tablespoon or two of maple syrup or agave nectar after cooking.
To toast coconut flakes, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Ensure the Arborio rice is evenly distributed in the liquid to prevent sticking during pressure cooking.
