Rice Pudding-Easy, Inexpensive and So Yummy!

Time for another comfort food recipe-this one in the form of a dessert.  Even though I never tasted my grandmother’s rice pudding, my dad always talked about how good it was.  This is an old-fashioned recipe and hopefully, even Grandma T. would like it!

Rice Pudding

1 tablespoon butter

1/3 cup rice, rinsed and drained

pinch of salt

2 cups of whole milk

1 tablespoon sugar

optional: 1/4 cup raisins

Preheat oven to 350°.  Grease bottom of pie plate with butter.  Combine rice, milk, sugar, salt and raisins {if desired}.  Bake in oven, stirring occasionally, for about 2 hours or until the rice is tender.

Serves 4. Refrigerate any leftovers.

Remove from oven and serve warm sprinkled with cinnamon and topped with whipped cream.

hugs, mb

I linked this recipe to two blog carnivals this week:  Forever Wherever and a Strawberry Festival is featured this week {everything looks so good!}

I am also linking to Blessed with Grace-this week’s featured recipe is Tuna Casserole {I really, truly love TUNA!}

I need to make sure I have a full belly before I come to visit here, or else :)

Sounds good! I’ve never had rice pudding, but I’m growing more and more curious as I keep seeing different recipes popping up on blogs.

one of my favorite desserts…Martha had a version a while back that had a baked meringue topping…I add that to my rice puddings now and they are even better – will have to give your recipe a try – looks delicious! and I totally agree with Jennifer…I should make sure I’m full before coming here because your recipe posts always make my mouth water.
