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!
Take 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’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!
The perfect combo of flavors for rice pudding!
That looks simply scrumptious! I’ve never made a rice pudding but this one seems like a good one to start with.
Super clever! Although I’d have a hard time not eating all of the mellowcreme pumpkins. 🙂 My fave!
What a clever idea! I love those cups! Where did you get them?
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.
What comfort food, love the little heart shaped dishes and the mini pumpkin on top of these little puddings.
I love rice pudding no matter what, but pumping it with pumpkin makes it extra special. GREG
this is so adorable, Diane! of course, i adore the little pumpkin resting atop each serving! i actually don’t like rice pudding, but i’ve been considering giving it another shot…since i love all things pumpkin, i’m sure i’ll love your pumpkin rice pudding!
I haven’t made rice pudding in quite some time. Love your Halloween presentation of it 🙂
My husband would love, love this–will have to make it for him.
I am also a huge rice pudding fan! Pumpkin seems like the perfect flavor addition.
I love rice pudding. And I’ve never had it with pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice. Sounds very tasty!
how cute! i love those brown and white striped bowls. <3
Love the way this looks! Comforting and festive at the same time!
I wish I was having this for BREAKFAST right now!
What a comforting fall dessert! Love it!
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
yes Ikea, I LOVE them and they are red, I have three sets of them and wish I had a few more 🙂
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!
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 🙂
What a fun take on rice pudding and the presentation is adorable.
Thanks Dara 🙂
looks delicious….and very festive too! i love anything pumpkin…but with the comfort of creamy rice, it must just be divine 🙂
Christy,
yep this one is disappearing right out of the fridge, before my eyes! I’m pumpkin obsessed, love everything.
how creative!
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!
I just spent two hours on the phone with my computer guy, he’s great and he said he’d work for sweets 🙂
they look really cute! the pumpkin on top is the best!
Thanks!!!
I’m with you all the way on this one…love rice pudding, love pumpkin. What a pretty color, too.
