Rice Pudding

Recipe posted by Allanon

Ingredients
1C Long Grain white rice
1C granulated sugar
2 Tbl vanilla
6-8 eggs (more eggs = more custard on top)
2 Tbl cinnamon
4C milk (2% or whole makes a better custard)
1C raisins (optional, dates can be substituted or both can be left out as desired)
(These are the original measurements: 1 Tbl vanilla; 6 eggs; 1 Tbl cinnamon)
Directions

Cook rice until tender (approx. 20 min). When done, drain and rinse.

While rice is cooking, mix eggs, vanilla, sugar, raisins, and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl.

Heat milk to almost boiling (for less clean-up, use the same pan you cooked the rice in). Remove from heat and add slowly to egg mixture. Mix well.

Butter a 12" round by 3" deep casserole dish. Spread rice into the bottom of the dish. Add egg/milk mixture. Sprinkle top with nutmeg. Bake at 425 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until a knife/toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool before serving.
Notes
I've also made individual servings in small bowls (4 ounces maybe). These usually take less cooking time due to the smaller volume.
