Ingredients

2 cups cooked rice

1 egg

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

Pinch ground nutmeg (freshly ground, if possible)

Pinch salt

1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

1/4 tsp. almond extract (optional)

Oil for pan

Grade B pure maple syrup

Fresh berries

Butter

Preparation

Heat skillet over medium low heat. In a medium bowl, stir rice, egg, spices, salt and extracts with a fork until all ingredients are incorporated (do not mash up the rice).

Drop the rice into the heated skillet, lightly pressing down to create 3" rounds. Cook until the rice cake holds together well and the bottom is golden brown. Flip with a spatula and cook until golden brown.

Serve hot with butter, fresh berries and maple syrup.
