Baked Rice Pudding

Short grain rice, NOT converted, makes the best pudding.

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup uncooked short grain rice
• 1 qt. milk
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/8 tsp nutmeg or 1 tsp vanilla
• 2-3 TBS butter or margarine

Directions

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Sprinkle rice evenly over the bottom of a buttered 1-1/2 quart casserole. Mix milk and sugar, pour over rice, sprinkle with nutmeg, and dot with butter. Bake, uncovered, 2-1/2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes for the first 1-1/2 hours, until lightly browned. Serve warm, topped, if you like, with cream. Makes 4-6 servings.
