  1. WOW.. this was great! When I initially boil the rice, I throw in a cinnamon stick and cook it with the rice. I prefer my pudding a little more creamier and sweeter, so I used 3/4 cup of sugar and 2 cups of milk initially and 1 more cup of milk when i added the egg. I also let the pudding cook for an additional 18 min over med heat (stiring occasionaly so the milk doesn't burn) to create more of a custard in the pudding. When i remove it from the heat, I remove the cinnamon sticks and sprinke ground cinnamon on the top. I keep a bowl of this in my fridge at all times and take it for my breakfast at work. Thank you!!
     
  2. This was rich, creamy, and delicious. The directions and measurements are very accurate. I used short grain rice and it came out very creamy. I love rice pudding - my grandmother makes a version that is completely different which I adore, but this recipe was every bit as tasty and also deserving of 5 stars.
     
  3. My family & I loved this pudding! I doubled the recipe & it was eaten in a day, which is outstanding considering my partner or daughter are not big fans of rice puds! I sprinkled 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon in with the rice to start with, omitted the raisins & butter, but it turned out excellent and I have been asked to make it again tonight! My mum has a favourite recipe which she bakes in the oven, but this was faster, and dare I say, much creamier & tastier! Thanks for sharing, yum yum yum!! =)
     
  4. used 2 C. cooked rice, non fat milk, one pan,and tempered the egg with a little of the hot rice mixture. Absolutely the BEST!! Thank you Barb.
     
  5. Wonderful recipe! I love rice pudding and this is an awesome one. I used instant rice since that's all I had. I used 1 1/2 cups instant rice cooked in 1 1/2 cups water (according to package directions). I reduced the sugar to 1/4 cup and doubled the vanilla. I loved it sprinkled with cinnamon on top.

Tweaks

  1. I used long grain rice because it was what I had in the cabinet. When adding the cup and a half of milk, I used one cup of whole milk and half a cup of cream and added a healthy splash of Jim Beam. I also used a quarter cup more sugar than called for and omitted the raisins. When adding the remaining half cup of milk I used cream again and another splash of JB. Turned out amazing, super creamy and slightly boozy. Served cold with a caramel pecan sauce from a Pioneer Woman recipe. Yum!
     
  2. Add the sugar to the 1/2 milk and heat, stirring to make sure sugar is dissolved before adding the rice.
     
  3. Use demerara sugar, add molasses, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and a pinch of sea salt. Substitute 1 cup of heavy cream for 1 cup of milk. Scrumptious!
     
  4. Sprinkle a little cinnamon on top.
     
  5. I was craving rice pudding after watching a show of people eating rice pudding lol, so I had to make some! It was delish! Used Jasmine rice and and coconut sugar and it was perfect. Also replaced raisins with dried cranberries. Topped with a little bit of cinnamon and fresh mango. Yum!
