Baked Rice Pudding

Recipe from the kitchen of Leah Smith

1 cup water
1/2 cup long grain rice
4 cups milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bring water to a boil in saucepan. Reduce heat to low, add rice and simmer for 5 minutes. Drain rice. Return rice to saucepan adding milk, sugar, salt and vanilla. Heat just until warm. Pour into 1 1/2 quart greased baking dish. Bake for 1 3/4 -2 hours stirring every 30 minutes until rice is tender and pudding is creamy.

You can add raisins before putting mixture in oven. My mom used to make rice pudding quite a bit when I was growing up. It still brings back so many good memories... Comfort food for sure!
