Brown Rice Pumpkin Pudding Recipes

BROWN RICE PUMPKIN PUDDING

Steps:

• Place the rice in a mesh strainer and place under running water, stirring gently to rinse the rice thoroughly.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine milk, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice DO NOT BOIL. Once milk has heated and sugar is dissolved, add the rice and stir. Reduce to medium-low and cover. Allow to cook for about an hour, checking/stirring occasionally to see if more milk is needed and how tender the rice is.
• When rice is tender, remove from heat and stir in the pumpkin, cranberries, and vanilla. Serve warm in individual dessert dishes each topped with ice cream, a sprinkle of finely chopped pecans, and a light dusting of cinnamon.

PUMPKIN RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375F.
• Bring the water to a boil in an ovenproof 4-quart saucepan. Stir in the rice and cover. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the rice is nearly cooked, about 20 minutes.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, pumpkin, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt.
• While the rice is still hot, add the pumpkin mixture to the saucepan and stir well to combine. Cover and transfer to the oven. Bake until the liquid has reduced by about a third and the mixture is foamy and bubbling, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir well to combine all the ingredients. Transfer to a large bowl, then cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours or overnight. The pudding will keep for up to 4 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon.

BAKED PUMPKIN RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Combine milk, pumpkin, rice, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, salt and cloves to a boil in a large saucepan.
• Stir mixture constantly.
• Reduce heat to low; simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Remove pan from heat.
• Beat eggs and vanilla in a large bowl. Slowly stir in hot pumpkin mixture, blending well after each addition. (This lowers the temperature of the mixture, you don't want to add it at once, because you might end up with scrambled eggs. Not very appetizing! Or just whisk some of the hot mixture into the eggs. Then pour all into the hot mixture.)
• Pour into greased 2 quart casserole.
• Bake at 375 F for 45 to 50 minutes or until pudding is set. Cool slightly.
• Serve warm or refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Garnish as desired. Dollop of whipped cream, dash of cinnamon, maybe.
• Put leftovers in the refrigerator.

PUMPKIN RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Bring the water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat and add the rice. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 7 minutes; drain well.
• Using the same saucepan, bring the milk to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir in the rice, vanilla bean, and salt. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the rice is very soft and absorbs most of the milk, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, discard the vanilla bean, and stir in the sugar.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2 quart baking dish.
• Pour half of the rice pudding mixture into a large bowl. Add the pumpkin puree, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground nutmeg. Spoon the pumpkin rice pudding into the prepared baking dish. Mix the raisins into the remaining rice pudding mixture, and spoon it over the pumpkin rice pudding.
• Bake, uncovered until firm, about 30 minutes. Serve warm, sprinkled with cinnamon if desired.
