How to Make Old Fashioned Rice Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, sugar, eggs, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
  3. Stir in the rice.
  4. Pour the mixture into a greased 8x10-inch baking dish.
  5. Sprinkle the top with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the rice pudding is lightly browned on top and the custard is set. The pudding should be firm enough to hold its shape when you insert a knife into the center.
  7. Let the rice pudding cool slightly before serving. A slight jiggle is normal.
  8. Serve warm or cold, topped with a drizzle of maple syrup or a splash of milk. Enjoy!
