Jenny was my husband’s grandmother who passed away when he was a child. She made this as a special treat for him, and try as I might I couldn’t get a rice pudding recipe that he liked. Recently, a small box of her recipes was discovered and alas, there it was! This is my memory gift to him, and is the best I’ve ever tasted, so we are sharing with you.
1 quart whole milk
5 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 cup cooked white rice
3 eggs, beaten
Sprinklings of cinnamon or nutmeg
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9 x 13 pan and add to the pan, in this order: milk, sugar, rice, beaten eggs and stir well. Sprinkle cinnamon or nutmeg (we prefer cinnamon) on top and bake for 90 minutes, stirring once in a while. If it bubbles too much, turn down to 325 degrees.
