This is my mother's recipe for a super simple rice pudding. In this version I ended up adding raisins, almonds, and cinnamon but that is all optional. I'll show how to alter simple, yummy rice pudding into this cinnamon, almond raisin goodness!

Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients:
1 cup uncooked white rice
1 cup water
2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup raisins (optional)
slivered almonds for designs (optional)
cinnamon for dusting (optional)
Steps:
Put the water and rice in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, uncovered, and cook until the rice is tender, about 15-20 minutes. Most of the water will be gone and rice will be cooked through.
Add whole milk and bring back to a boil for about 5 minutes.

The rice will start to lose shape and get pasty. Add sugar. Stir constantly so it does not stick to the sides or the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat. If you are keeping the pudding simple, refrigerate as is for a couple hours and serve. To add the raisins, almonds and cinnamon, follow the next steps.
In little cups or bowls, add some raisins. Spoon pudding on top. Stir.
Lay slivered almonds on top of pudding and dust with cinnamon. Remove cinnamon-covered almonds and put on other bowls of pudding for alternating designs. Let set in fridge for a couple hours and serve.

Extra credit! Don't throw them away the pudding crisps that stick to the pot! They're like delicious little freebie crepes! Yum!

Wash rice; place in 2 quart dish. Add sugar, butter, salt and cinnamon. Bake in a very slow oven (275-300 degrees F.) for 3 hours, stirring 3 times during first hour to prevent rice from settling.

In top of double boiler, cook raw rice in water until soft. Add to the soft rice, evaporated milk, regular milk and sugar. Cook mixture so it boils for 5 minutes. Top with fruit and serve.
