Oven-Baked Rice Pudding Dixie

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup seedless dark raisins, soaked in rum, brandy, or hot water 
  • 4 cups (1 quart) milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 - 2/3 cups Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
  • 1/3 cup cooked brown or white rice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg or 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

  3. In a medium-sized bowl, beat eggs and milk together. 
  4. In prepared dish, combine milk/eggs, sugar, rice, and salt.
  5. Bake uncovered for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes.
  6. Stir in raisins, return to oven, and bake for 30 minutes more. Stir in lemon juice or vanilla, nutmeg, and optional cinnamon, if desired.
  7. Return to oven and bake for 30 minutes more, or until rice is very tender and pudding is no longer liquid.
