Old fashioned rice pudding

Old fashioned rice pudding

There are so many variations of making rice pudding between using different rices and adding different flavors (just cinnamon, different fruits, chocolate, or caramel to mention a few). I love the raisins that is used in the recipe from my grandma.

If you need a simple, easy dessert that is flavorful that can be served warm or when it’s cooled down.

The pudding starts out by cooking the rice on the oven, then poured into a casserole dish, and finished in the oven and creates a delicious homemade, old fashioned goodness you’ll love.

Ingredients :
2/3 c. Minute Rice
2 3/4 c. milk
1/3 c. sugar
1 tbsp. butter
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
Cinnamon
1/2 c. raisins

Directions :
1 : Combine Minute Rice, milk & raisins, sugar, butter, salt, vanilla & nutmeg in a buttered 1 quart baking dish.
2 : Bake in 350 degree oven for 1 h, stirring after 15 mins & again when pudding is done.
3 : Sprinkle with cinnamon.
4 : Serve warm or chilled. Pudding thickens as it stands.

Test Kitchen Tips :
Want super creamy rice pudding? Add an egg yolk or two. To avoid scrambling your eggs, remove a small amount of the hot mixture and whisk it into the yolk, then add all of it back into the dish. Make sure a thermometer inserted in the pudding reads 160 degrees; that means the yolk has cooked long enough to be safely eaten.
For a decadent treat, substitute dried cherries for the raisins and add a swirl of chocolate syrup.
ENJOY!
