Baked Rice Pudding
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3 cups cooked rice
- 1 cup raisins
Directions
- 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 2
Beat the eggs and sugar together. Slowly pour in the milk and cream and mix well.
- 3
Add the vanilla and cinnamon and mix well. Add the rice and raisins and stir to combine.
- 4
Pour mixture into a greased casserole dish. Any oven-safe dish will work--you can use one pan to bake at least 9x9'' or bigger, or smaller individualized serving dishes.
- 5
Place the filled casserole dish inside a larger, oven-proof dish. Add about 2 inches of water to the larger pan (or enough to fill about halfway up the side of the rice pudding dish). This method will help the pudding to have a custard texture.
- 6
If using a 9x9'' or slightly larger pan, bake for 40-50 minutes or until the top has set (It's okay if it jiggles just slightly). Serve warm.
- 7
Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
