How to Make Belizean Baked Rice Pudding

  1. Rinse 1 cup of long-grain rice and cook in 2 cups of water until very soft and creamy (approximately 20-25 minutes).
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. Drain the cooked rice thoroughly and transfer it to a large bowl.
  4. Add 1 can (14 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk, 2 cups of whole milk, 1/2 cup of heavy cream, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, and 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the bowl.
  5. Stir continuously until the butter is completely melted and all ingredients are well combined.
  6. Grease or spray an 8x8 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  7. Pour the rice mixture into the prepared baking dish. The mixture should be about 2 inches deep.
  8. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the pudding is set, firm, and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool slightly before serving warm or chilled.
