Step 1
Slice apples into thin half-moons, discarding cores. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat 0.5 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium-high until foaming, then sauté apples with a pinch of salt for 4 minutes until golden and caramelized. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
In the same pot, combine pumpkin puree, broth, and rice. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Step 4
Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon, then simmer for 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender and porridge thickens.

Stir in remaining 1.5 tbsp butter and vanilla extract until the porridge is silky and cohesive.
Step 6
Pour into bowls and top with caramelized apples and a small pinch of cinnamon. Serve warm.
