Ingredients

Scale

Rice and Wet Ingredients

  • ¾ cup (150g) uncooked white rice (short-grain or Arborio)
  • 3 cups (720ml) whole milk
  • 1 can (14 oz/400g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Spices and Flavorings

  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Add-ins

  • ½ cup (80g) raisins or sultanas (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  2. Cook Rice: Bring 1½ cups of water to a boil in a saucepan, add the rice, cover, and simmer for 10–12 minutes until the rice is just tender but not fully cooked. Drain any excess water and allow the rice to cool slightly.
  3. Make Custard: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then gradually whisk them into the milk mixture until well incorporated.
  4. Assemble: Spread the cooked rice evenly in the prepared baking dish. If using, sprinkle the raisins or sultanas evenly over the rice. Pour the custard mixture over the rice and gently stir to combine all the ingredients evenly.
  5. Bake: Place the baking dish inside a larger pan and pour hot water into the larger pan to create a water bath. Bake in the oven for 45–55 minutes, stirring the pudding gently once about halfway through baking. The pudding is done when it is golden on top and just set, with a slight jiggle in the center.
  6. Cool & Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the pudding to cool for 10–15 minutes before serving warm. Alternatively, chill in the refrigerator for a firmer texture. Enjoy your creamy, comforting baked rice pudding!

Notes

  • You can use short-grain or Arborio rice for the best creamy texture.
  • Raisins or sultanas are optional but add natural sweetness and texture.
  • Adjust the amount of cinnamon and nutmeg according to taste or omit if sensitive to spices.
  • Baking in a water bath ensures even cooking and prevents the custard from curdling.
  • This pudding can be served warm straight from the oven or chilled for a firmer dessert.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, warm gently in the oven or microwave until heated through.
