🥣 Ingredients
1 cup whole brown rice, rinsed well
1 can (13.5–14 oz) natural coconut milk
1½ cups water (plus more if needed during cooking)
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
5 Medjool dates, pitted and chopped
Optional pinch of sea salt (to brighten flavors)
🕊️ Instructions
Prepare the brown rice.
Rinse the brown rice under cool water until the water runs mostly clear. It will have a cleaner taste without dirt, stems, pebbles :)
Load the slow cooker
Add the rice, coconut milk, water, cinnamon, cardamom, chopped dates, and salt (if using) to your crock pot.
Stir gently to combine.
Slow cook with intention
Cover and cook on LOW for 7–8 hours, stirring once or twice if convenient.
The rice should be very tender and the mixture thick and creamy.
Adjust consistency
If the porridge thickens more than you like, stir in additional warm water or coconut milk, a little at a time, until it reaches your desired texture.
Serve warm
Spoon into bowls, pause for gratitude, and enjoy slowly.
🌺 Optional Toppings
Toasted coconut flakes
Fresh fruit (banana slices, mango, or berries)
Chopped nuts or seeds for gentle crunch
Extra cinnamon for aroma and warmth
💛 Blessings Tip
As this porridge cooks, let it remind you: good things take time. Just like the rice softens slowly, hearts soften when given patience, warmth, and care.
