Pumpkin Rice Pudding Recipe
Pumpkin Rice Pudding
I love Rice Pudding so much, I didn’t have to give it a second thought to add some pumpkin goodness to it.
I did change it up a bit, I used Basmati rice and I really like it.
It’s a wonder this post ever got written, I use Google Chrome and I feel like it hates me right now. It crashed so many times, I feel like we were in a 50 car pile up. I’ve checked all I know how to on performance on my computer and still no luck. It keeps crashing. UGH. I love Google Chrome, what did I do to upset you? It’s not like I can bribe Google with sweet treats like I do with others. Oh come on you do that too, don’t you?
Onto today’s sweet treat!
- 2 cups Basmati Rice
- 8 cups Whole Milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 12oz can of evaporated milk
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- Combine rice, milk and salt in a saucepan.
- Cook on medium heat for 20 minutes stirring every couple of minutes until rice is tender.
- (Basmati rice seems to have less starch in it, if you are using regular long grain rice only use 1 cup of rice) Not all liquid will be dissolved.
- Take the saucepan off the stove and add sugar, pumpkin, evaporated milk, lightly beaten eggs, vanilla and pumpkin pie spice.
- Place saucepan back onto the stove on medium low heat for three more minutes, stirring constantly so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of pan and burn.
- Pour into 2 ½ quart casserole dish or individual serving dishes.
- Let cool, then place in refrigerator to chill completely.
- Sprinkle top with nutmeg and add candy corn pumpkins if desired.

I love rice pudding, it’s one of my favorite childhood treats. As for the browser issue I’m about to throw my computer out the window Firefox is acting up again!
Diane says
I just spent two hours on the phone with my computer guy, he’s great and he said he’d work for sweets 🙂

I’m using Google Chrome and don’t seem to have any problem with it. However, your site it slow to load and I am having trouble typing out this comment. Perhaps you have picked up a virus? In any case, I hope you can work out your issues. Your rice pudding looks great and I love that you used basmati!
Diane says
my computer repair guy said there was a memory leak with google chrome. I contacted my hosting company. It’s better now. I had issues ALL day. So glad it’s better now. I love Basmati rice, it’s so yummy. Bought a 20 lb bag of it 🙂
haniela says
Omg, this looks so delish, I love anything with rice, your measuring cups are way too familiar to me, IKEA? I have several sets. Yum
Diane says
yes Ikea, I LOVE them and they are red, I have three sets of them and wish I had a few more 🙂

I am also a huge rice pudding fan! Pumpkin seems like the perfect flavor addition.

My husband would love, love this–will have to make it for him.

I love rice pudding no matter what, but pumping it with pumpkin makes it extra special. GREG
Jeanette says
What comfort food, love the little heart shaped dishes and the mini pumpkin on top of these little puddings.
Wenderly says
What a clever idea! I love those cups! Where did you get them?
Diane says
I wish I could remember where I got the cups from, all I know is I ordered them about two years ago from someone on etsy. They are plastic lined cups. Wish I could be more helpful.
Heather | Farmgirl Gourmet says
Super clever! Although I’d have a hard time not eating all of the mellowcreme pumpkins. 🙂 My fave!
Cat Davis - Food Family Finds says
That looks simply scrumptious! I’ve never made a rice pudding but this one seems like a good one to start with.
marla says
The perfect combo of flavors for rice pudding!
Possible Baker says
I’ve never had rice pudding, but I am a huge pumpkin fan, so I think if I ever had it, that would be the way to go. With a baby on the way, I’m thinking this might be one of those recipies that would be really good after the baby is here…and that I might possibly not be able to get enough of:) It’s bookmarked on my favorites to try!
[email protected] says
Oh that looks so so good! I loooove rice pudding! Growing up we’d leave a bit of the rice that we had for dinner so that Mom could make the rest into rice pudding. 🙂
Rosie @ Sweetapolita says
Yum! I am a big rice pudding lover, but yet I have never made it at home. I love that you added pumpkin–it looks so good! Thanks for reminding me how much I love rice pudding 🙂
