Great recipe! I surpirsed my mom for her 70th birthday with this cake :-) She is from Holland, and we just LOVE to eat these cakes when we are visiting! It has been a while since we were in Holland now, so it was really nice to have this vlaai at home as well! Her favorite vlaai is either rice or apricot. Do you have a recipe for that as well? :-) Thanks again! Best regards, Maike

Hi Maike, lovely to hear your mother enjoyed the 'Rijstevlaai'! We have the recipe for apricot pie too: https://ohmydish.com/recipe/dutch-apricot-pie-abrikozenvlaai/. Maybe try out other 'vlaaien' too? You can see them over at: https://ohmydish.com/limburger-pies/ Hope she'll like those too! Best regards, Veronique

What is dessert rice? (I'm in the US) Dankje

Hi Darlene, I'm not sure which brand there's available in the US. I think it's also called pudding rice. It's rice that's more starchy and it cooks into a creamy texture. Hope you can find any, cause this pie is amazing! Have a nice day :-)

Thank you for sharing. It’s amazing, we love rijstevlaas. Now I can ‘try’ to make it. Since Covid we haven’t been back to Holland, otherwise we’re there every year. Do you have the real Dutch apple pie recipe?

Hi Marika, I'm so sorry to get back to you so late! Thank you so much, I love rijstevlaai too! We live in France and going to our family in Holland in these covid times is hard, so I can image you haven't been back. Where do you live? Yes I do, this is my version of a Dutch apple pie: https://ohmydish.com/recipe/classic-apple-pie/ Have a great evening!

i have been trying this recipe twice now and both times had to throw it out. The rice doesn't harden up with the milk which might be because I can only use skim milk. please help

Hi Rob, I never use skim milk but I have googled some recipes for rice pudding that does use skim milk. I think it should be the same ratio milk and rice, but maybe it's different because of the low % fat. What kind of rice are you using?
