Cooking Method

When it comes to rice pudding, the baking method is a whole lot simpler than the stove-top method. So, if this is your first time trying your hand at this creamy dessert, you’re in luck! Simply combine your ingredients and let the oven do the rest of the work. We suggest using leftover rice or letting the rice cool a bit before adding it in with the other ingredients.  

If you’re thinking about skipping the water bath because it sounds complicated, don’t! It’s actually a lot simpler than it sounds. Just place your oven-safe baking dish inside of a larger pan that contains water. The water from the outside pan helps the rice pudding cook evenly and maintain its creamy texture. If you don’t have two pans, feel free to use a large, cheap aluminum foil cooking pan from the local grocery store.

Serve this dish hot or cold and top it with homemade whipped cream. While you wait for your rice pudding to finish cooking, simply whip together heavy cream, sugar and vanilla. In minutes, you’ll have a delicious, homemade topping for your dessert!

If you want to add whole grains to this dessert, simply use Success® Brown Rice instead of white rice. Or, try your hand at this simple Creamy Brown Rice Pudding with maple syrup and butter.
