We know that this was popular with the likes of Thomas Jefferson and other forefathers and foremothers. People don't seem to be making it much anymore and that saddens me. It is little work and just delicious, cold, in the middle of the night.

Mix all ingredients except the rice and lemon juice and cinnamon. Mix them well and then add the rice and lemon juice. Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on top. Place in a 8x10-inch greased baking dish and bake at 325ø for 50 minutes, or until it is lightly brown and the custard is set. Test with a table knife. Stick it in the center of the dish, and if it comes out clean the dish is baked.

In earlier times maple syrup was served on top of this pudding. Milk is enjoyed as well.
