Baked versus Stovetop



Making this rice pudding from scratch always brings me back to my childhood, grandma would stir that pudding for over an hour on the stovetop.


I love rice pudding and in a pinch, this came out great like baked custard with creamy soft rice.


Cooking this in a baking pan with an inch of water in it did make this have that old-fashioned flavor and perfect custard base for the rice.


There are 10 minutes of cooking this on the stovetop to soften the rice, and then the whole pudding takes around 25 minutes to bake and so much easier.


I love mine warm sprinkled with cinnamon or nutmeg, you can leave the raisins out if you're not a fan or add them after it's cooked with fruits.
