Amazing Old Fashioned Rice Pudding (Printable Format)

A warm, comforting dessert made with Minute Rice, milk, sugar, and raisins, baked to creamy perfection and sprinkled with cinnamon for that classic homemade taste.

# What You'll Gather:

01 - 2/3 cup Minute Rice
02 - 2 3/4 cups milk
03 - 1/3 cup sugar
04 - 1 tablespoon butter
05 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
06 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
07 - 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
08 - Cinnamon (for sprinkling)
09 - 1/2 cup raisins

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Grab a 1-quart baking dish and lightly butter it. Dump in your Minute Rice, milk, sugar, butter, salt, vanilla, nutmeg, and raisins. Give everything a good stir until it's all mixed up.
02 - Heat your oven to 350°F. Pop your dish in and let it bake for a full hour. After the first 15 minutes, open the oven and give the pudding a quick stir.
03 - Once the hour is up, take the pudding out and give it one more good stir. While it's still hot, sprinkle some cinnamon over the top.
04 - You can eat your rice pudding warm right away or let it cool and then chill it in the fridge. The pudding will get thicker as it sits.

# Important Tips:

01 - Try topping with fresh whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a special treat.
02 - Fresh fruits like berries or sliced bananas make wonderful toppings.
03 - For extra texture, sprinkle with chopped nuts like almonds or pecans.
04 - Store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days in an airtight container.
05 - When reheating, add a splash of milk to restore creaminess.
