This recipe assumes the user is familiar with and knows how to use an Instant Pot. Always read and follow the manufacturers instructions before attempting to make a recipe in your Instant Pot.
To make this recipe on the stovetop, combine the rice, water, coconut milk, and cinnamon in a medium sized pot. Bring to a boil then reduce heat, cover, and allow to simmer 45-50 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Turn off the heat and allow to stand, covered, for five minutes before stirring and serving with toppings.
