Like my original oven baked rice pudding recipe, this one is not made on the stove involving an hour of stirring!
No, just stir the ingredients together in an oven-safe bowl and just one more stir during baking, that’s it! There’s nothing else to do, so you can spend your time doing something you need (or even better, want) to do. Let the oven do the work for you and then enjoy the delightful dessert!
You could also make glorified rice with any leftovers.

FULL PRINTABLE RECIPE BELOW
Ingredients
- Arborio or Carnaroli, for best results (any white rice will work, but do NOT use Minute Rice)

- eggnog liqueur (or eggnog)
- sugar
- butter
- nutmeg, ground
Directions
Heat oven to 350ºF (175ºC)
Butter the inside edge (no need to do the bottom) of a baking dish, then add the rice and the milk and cream (if using) and eggnog liqueur.
Now add the sugar, and stir until it dissolves. Add a pat of butter, and a little sprinkle of nutmeg.
Place the dish in the center of the pre-heated oven, and set the timer for 30 mins.
After 30 minutes, take the dish out of the oven, stir well, and return it to the oven. Set the timer for another hour. When the hour is up, your dessert is ready!
Allow to cool a little as it thickens as it cools, then spoon into serving bowls and top with a little cinnamon, if desired.

I am not familiar with Eggnog Liquer – I assume there is alcohol in it. If so, 1 cup would make this recipe very strong – are you sure it’s one cup?
Hi Annette, yes it’s correct. It’s not very strong at all.
