Receta Baked Breakfast Rice Pudding
Rice pudding is traditionally a dessert, but as a child, we always had it for breakfast. Our breakfast pudding was nothing like the sweet creamy dishes that most people know, though . . . this was baked with a custardy flavor, sprinkled with cinnamon and drenched in milk, like cereal. It was a special treat in our house!
I tried my hand at this dish recently and it was quite a favorite with my kids, too! I made it plain, but you can add raisins, nuts or other dried fruit, etc. You can make this breakfast the night before and serve it cold in the morning or heat it.
