I came up with this Baked Rice Pudding recipe because I am always looking for variations on my traditional Asian inspired, family recipes. I have chosen to flavor this pudding with vanilla, apricots and raisins, cardamom and finely shredded orange peels for sweetness and texture.
This recipe is very easy to prepare and finishes off every dinner party just lovely. You don’t even need to serve anything else with this one!
So, how to make Baked Rice Pudding?
In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites, egg, milk, sugar, and vanilla until combined, but not foamy.
Stir in the rice, dried fruit of your choice (apricots or raisins), cardamom and orange peel, until well mixed.
Divide the rice mixture between 5 soufflé cups and place them on a baking dish, on an oven rack. Pour boiling water into the dish, around the cups until it reaches about 1-inch high.
Bake in the oven at 325 °F for about 30 minutes (stirring after 20 minutes), until set.
Serve warm or chilled, to your preference.
