Rice Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Beat eggs in very large bowl. Add sugar, mixing well. Stir in cheese and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Add heavy cream and stir. Fold in cooked rice and crushed pineapple.
• Pour into a 9 x 13 inch buttered pan.
• Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for one hour. Check by inserting clean knife into center. If the pie is done, knife will come out clean. Top should be golden brown. Refrigerate until thoroughly cooled.

Steps:

• Grease two 9-inch pie plates.
• Pulse flour, baking powder, 1/2 cup sugar, and salt in a food processor several times until combined.
• Place butter into the flour mixture and pulse just until butter resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in 1 egg and vanilla extract; process until dough holds together, about 30 seconds.
• Place dough on a well-floured work surface, divide in half, and roll each piece into a 9-inch round crust.
• Fit crusts into the prepared pie plates and freeze for 1 hour.
• Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; stir in rice and return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until rice has absorbed the water, about 20 minutes.
• Stir milk into the rice and bring to a simmer; cook until thickened, stirring often, about 10 more minutes. Set rice mixture aside to cool.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Beat ricotta cheese, 1 cup sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and 6 eggs together in a bowl until smooth. Stir in cooked rice mixture and crushed pineapple until thoroughly combined.
• Divide the filling between the 2 cold pie crusts.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is set and the tops are golden brown, about 90 minutes. Cool on racks.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a 9.5"-10" deep dish pie dish with dough. (Recommend deep dish (2") as this is a lot of filling and will come very close to top.)
• 2. Beat together sugar and ricotta. Add eggs one at a time and beat until incorporated.
• 3. Add half & half, vanilla, lemon juice, and 1 dash of cinnamon. Mix well. Stir in rice.
• 4. Pour filling into crust and sprinkle lightly a dash of cinnamon on top. (Photo in this step is of the filling in a 9.5" x 2" pie dish. It will not overflow while baking.)
• 5. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes. Lower temp to 350 degrees and bake an additional 50 minutes. Should be lightly browned on top & may be very slightly jiggly toward the center (will set up when cool).
• 6. Let cool completely. Serve chilled or room temp.

Steps:

• Combine the crust ingredients; press onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-in. pie plate; set aside. , In a saucepan, cook broccoli, cauliflower, carrots and onion in a small amount of water until crisp-tender; drain well. In another saucepan, combine mayonnaise and flour until smooth; cook and stir until bubbly. Gradually add milk, salt and pepper; cook and stir over medium heat until thick, about 3 minutes. Stir in vegetables; pour into the crust. Sprinkle with cheese. , Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-40 minutes or until crust edges begin to brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Make the prune filling: Combine prunes, raisins, brandy, light-brown sugar, zest, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until syrupy, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to the bowl of a food processor; process until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl; cover and refrigerate.
• Make the rice filling: Bring 1 1/2 cups water and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add rice, cover, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender and water has evaporated, about 20 minutes. Stir in milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Simmer, stirring frequently, until rice is very tender, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Whisk together eggs until well incorporated in a medium bowl. While whisking constantly, add a small ladle of hot milk mixture to the eggs. Repeat process until half of the milk mixture has been incorporated. Then slowly return egg mixture to pot while continuing to whisk. Return pot to the heat and cook, stirring, until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a medium bowl. Let cool for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Press plastic wrap directly on the surface of the rice mixture. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Make the crust: Combine warm water and yeast in a small bowl. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Whisk together flour and salt. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the eggs and vanilla until pale yellow and tripled in volume. Add sugar and butter and beat until thoroughly combined. Using a rubber spatula, stir in yeast mixture until just incorporated; stir in flour mixture. Turn out dough onto a generously floured work surface and sprinkle with more flour. Gently knead for about 1 minute. Transfer to a large bowl coated with softened butter. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees with rack in center of oven. Punch down dough and remove from bowl. Pat dough into a 13-inch round and place in a 9-inch pie plate. Spread bottom evenly with prune filling. Stir rice mixture to loosen and add to pie plate. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet until crust is golden and center is set, about 1 hour. If crust browns too quickly, tent with a piece of foil that has a hole in the center. Let cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then chill in refrigerator until completely cooled, at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the beef, 3/4 cup tomato sauce, bread crumbs, onion, green pepper if desired and seasonings. Press evenly onto the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9-in. pie plate, forming a crust., In another large bowl, combine the tomato paste and remaining tomato sauce. Stir in the rice and 3/4 cup cheese; pour into crust. Place pie plate on a baking sheet. , Cover and bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until the meat is no longer pink. Uncover; drain. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until the cheese is melted. Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting.
