This Instant Pot rice pudding turns humble short-grain rice into a lush, spoonable dessert with almost no hands-on effort. Pressure cooking softens the grains fully, and a quick finish on the sauté setting brings everything together into a silky, thick pudding that coats the back of a spoon. Warm vanilla and cinnamon round out every bite, giving it that classic comfort-food flavor you want from a stovetop-style pudding without ever touching a stove. A light dusting of extra cinnamon or nutmeg on top makes it feel special enough for company, whether you spoon it up warm or chill it for later. It's a genuinely solid pick for a low FODMAP dessert rotation, and the short ingredient list keeps cleanup easy too.
