Pudding Recipe ⤞ Baked Swedish Rice Pudding

A bit different; it includes baked meringue. Serve warm or cold.

Ingredients

• 4 cups milk
• ½ cup long grain rice
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 4 egg yolks, room temperature
• ½ cup white sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 egg whites, room temperature
• 3 tablespoons white sugar

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
2. Bring milk to a boil in a large saucepan. Stir rice and salt into milk, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring frequently, until rice is tender, about 18 minutes.
3. Beat egg yolks, 1/2 cup sugar, butter, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until combined. Stir 1 cup of the hot rice mixture into egg mixture until well-mixed.
4. Pour egg mixture into rice mixture in the saucepan; bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens, about 1 minute. Pour into prepared casserole dish.
5. Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add 3 tablespoons sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks. Spread egg white mixture over rice mixture, ensuring that egg whites are spread to the edges of the casserole dish.
6. Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 15 minutes.
