A delightful way to use leftover rice pudding, these fritters can be flavored with a variety of sweet ingredients and fried to golden perfection.

Ingredients

2 cups Cooked Rice Pudding (Leftover rice pudding works best.)
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (Or other essence of your choice)
1 pinch Ground Cinnamon (Or other spice of your choice)
2 tablespoons Orange Marmalade (Or peach marmalade, fresh lime marmalade, apricot jam, etc.)
0.25 cup All-Purpose Flour (For binding)
0.5 cup Vegetable Oil (For frying)
2 tablespoons Powdered Sugar (For dusting (optional))

Instructions

1In a bowl, combine the cooked rice pudding, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and orange marmalade. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
2Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the rice pudding mixture, mixing until a slightly firm dough forms. This will help bind the fritters together.
3Take a tablespoon of the mixture and shape it into small, round or oval fritters.
4Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the fritters in the pan, ensuring not to overcrowd it. Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
5Remove the fried fritters from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Dust with powdered sugar (optional) and serve warm.
