Apple Rice Pudding

• rice pudding
• 5 cups milk
• 1 cup long grain rice
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• applesauce
• 8 -10 apples, peeled cored, chopped
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 3 tablespoons water
• 1/2 cup fresh soft breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons butter

1. PUDDING:
2. Place milk, rice, sugar and salt in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat. Cook until rice is tender and creamy-about 25-30 minutes.
3. SAUCE:
4. In another saucepan, combine apples, sugar, raisins, cinnamon and water. Cook covered, over low heat until apples are tender, about 20 minutes. Mash using a potato masher if desired.
5. Spread half the hot rice in a buttered, shallow baking dish. Cover with applesauce, then top with remaining rice. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and dot with butter. Place under a preheated broiler for a few minutes until bread crumbs are golden.
6. Serve warm or cool.
