Belizean Baked Rice Pudding Recipes

BELIZEAN BAKED RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Cook rice in plain water until rice is very soft (do not add oil or salt to water when cooking).
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Drain hot rice and place in bowl. While stirring, add all other ingredients. Continue stirring until butter is melted and all ingredients are incorporated.
• Pour into pan that you have greased or sprayed with cooking spray. Rice mixture should be around 2 inches deep in the pan.
• Bake approximately 60 minutes, or until firm and knife inserted in center comes out clean. (NOTE: the recipe did not include cooking time. I based this time on reviews by people who tried it).

BELIZEAN BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon.
• Tear bread into pieces and place in large bowl.
• Pour butter over bread, then add both types of milk, vanilla, eggs and water. Mix well.
• Add sugar mixture and mix well with hands. Stir raisins into mixture.
• Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
• Pour mixture into 9x13 pan coated with cooking spray and bake until brown on top.
• NOTE: The original recipe calls for an ungreased 9x12 pan, but it seems to me that a pan coated in cooking spray would be much easier to work with when serving.
