Homemade rice pudding made with skimmed milk is the lowest-fat version of traditional rice pudding. It retains the calcium, vitamin B12, protein, and riboflavin of dairy milk but with virtually no fat. The result is lighter and less creamy than whole or semi-skimmed milk versions, but is a suitable option for those reducing dietary fat. Added sugar remains the primary source of free sugars.
To compensate for the reduced creaminess of skimmed milk, add a vanilla pod during cooking and use slightly less rice for a looser, more custard-like consistency. Stir regularly if cooking on the stovetop to prevent the base catching.

Glycemic Index & Load
Low GI food — causes a slow, steady rise in blood sugar. Ideal for sustained energy, blood glucose control, and reducing insulin demand.
Glycemic Load (GL = GI × carbs ÷ 100) accounts for portion size. A low GL means this food has minimal real-world blood sugar impact.

* % Daily Value is the proportion of an adult
EU Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) supplied by 100g of this food.
NRVs are the labelling standard — the same basis as the “%RI” figures printed on
food packaging — so these percentages are directly comparable with a shop label.
They are a single adult figure and do not vary by age or sex, which is why they
sometimes differ from UK dietary reference values: the NRV for vitamin C is 80mg
where the UK RNI is 40mg. When Nutriofia assesses your own intake in the
reports and trackers, it uses the age- and sex-specific UK values instead.
Fibre is shown without a percentage. Our fibre values use the UK
Englyst NSP method, while the published 30g daily goal is an AOAC figure — the two
are measured differently and a single percentage would mislead.
