I have to be honest, I had never had rice pudding before I made this. I’ve always wanted to try it, but just never have. And in the spirit of the season, I opted for a Pumpkin Rice Pudding to try in the slow cooker. Have you been following along this week during Crocktoberfest? I’ve shared slow cooker recipes all week along with some of my favorite bloggers. The recipes this week all look AH-MAZ-ING!
If you haven’t noticed I love cooking in my slow cooker…I think I’ve mentioned before that I have about 5 different slow cookers and I use them all! Yes, sometimes all at the same time (usually on holidays though). If you haven’t tried cooking in one recently, I challenge you to do it. Recipes have changed and improved so much over the years…you’d be really surprised.
Keep reading after the recipe for 9 other scrumptious slow cooker dessert recipes from some of my favorite bloggers or check out my other easy pumpkin recipes! They sound amazing, so go check them out!

Hi was wondering If I could double this recipe in a 6 quart crockpot…wanting to make it for a dinner party tomorrow..Thanks for your time
I don’t see why not. Just watch it so it doesn’t burn. 🙂 w-
WHY don’t people tell how many their recipe serves?!?
It really is going to depend on how big you want your servings to be for this one. I tend to say 4 servings per cup of dry rice. ~w
Just made the pumpkin rice pudding yesterday and it is delicious. Thank you for the healthy comfort food that is perfect for Thanksgiving.
I want to make this for my dinner guests. How much does this make?
Hi Laura, this recipe makes about 8 servings. ~wendy
Just to be clear, the rice is uncooked, right? (Novice chef here!) Thanks!
No worries Katie! We all start somewhere. 🙂 Yes, the rice is uncooked when it goes in the pot. Enjoy!
Do you serve this warm or cold?
I served it warm. 🙂
I’m definitely going to try this. I love rice pudding and I am a huge pumpkin fan as well. Thank you.
Could brown rice be used?
Probably, it might need more water and a longer cooking time. You’d just have to play with it. :). Let me know how it works out.
This sounds DELICIOUS! I’d love for you to join the Pinworthy Projects link party! http://www.atkinsondrive.com/pinworthy-projects-link-party-12/
I love rice pudding. this sounds like a yummy one!
I’ve never made rice pudding, but this looks great! What a fun week this was! Thanks for asking me to help organize it!
There’s just nothing ever wrong about rice pudding. I adore this pumpkin version!
I just had rice pudding for the first time recently, too! My boyfriend got some from Pita Jungle and it was soooo good! I don’t know, it just never sounded appealing to me, but I was pleasantly surprised. Love the pumpkin twist and love the slow cooker approach – this one’s sure to be a hit! PS – jumped over here from the AZ Bloggers Network. Your blog looks great!
Amazing recipe Wendy. My wife cooked me another 2 recipes with pumpkin and i have to try this one. Nice pictures also.:)
Thanks Chris. 🙂 Hope you like the recipe. 🙂
What a fun crockpot recipe. 🙂 Love the pumpkin flavors. Thanks again for a great week of crockpot recipes.
Oh how I love rice pudding.. haven’t had it in ages though it seems. Using my Crock Pot has been a blessing lately and this gives me just the best reason to make rice pudding again. Thank you!
Yum! What a great dessert! It looks so delicious and I LOVE that it’s pumpkin!!
