Hot Rice Cereal

Submit Discuss

Rice cereal will be the first solid food your baby has. So why not sample the fare the adult way: with butter and sugar?


  • 3 cups low-fat or fat-free milk
  • 1 cup water
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ tablespoon butter (optional)
  • 1 cup white rice
  • cinnamon and sugar

1 Bring the milk, water, salt and butter (if using) to a boil in a large saucepan.

2 Add the rice and reduce the heat to medium-low.

3 Cover the saucepan and simmer for 20–25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4 Once the rice is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, remove the lid.

5 Cook and stir the cereal for an additional 1–2 minutes until cereal is at desired consistency.

6 Let cool for 5 minutes.

7 Top with cinnamon and sugar.

  • The milk and water mixture will boil over very easily. Watch the pot closely while bringing to a boil.
