Instructions
- Place rice, water, and cinnamon stick in a medium saucepan. Bring to boil on medium heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until water is absorbed.
- Meanwhile, bring milk, sugar, and vanilla to simmer in a large saucepan on medium heat. Stir in cooked rice and cinnamon stick. Cook for 45 minutes or until the mixture is thick and creamy, stirring occasionally. Remove cinnamon stick. Stir in lemon peel. Pour rice pudding into a large bowl. (Pudding will thicken as it cools.) Place plastic wrap directly on the surface of rice pudding. Cool slightly.
- Refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight until well chilled. Serve sprinkled with ground cinnamon.
