- 1 cup fat free milk
- 1 cup fat free half and half
- 8 teaspoons of basmati rice, rinsed and cleaned
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup Splenda
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 cup of raisins (optional)
Butter a pyrex dish or clay casserole pot, as shown (this was the only added fat, so it's not REALLY fat free, but oh well). Clean and rinse the rice, and spoon into dish. Cover with all ingredients. Stir. Bake at 325 for 3 hours, stirring several times to incorporate the rice as it swells.
Notes: The photo above was taken after just over 2 hours. I ate it creamy and warm at this point, but cooking it another 50 minutes made it thicker and firmer, but still very creamy. It did not brown. Also, I thought it could use less sweetener. I would use less than 1/4 cup of sugar next time, or even just as bit of honey or agave syrup or something similar.
Delicious! I just made some yesterday, with fat and with sugar ;)
ReplyDeleteHope your doing ok after the root canal....
Session 3 and 4? OMG. If I had to go more than once, I'd rip my hair out. And I love rice pudding. My mom used to make hers from our old Betty Crocker cookbook. Looks yummy, and I'd agree -- most comforting!
