Ingredients: |
Ingredients: 2 cups milk
1 cup cream, half-and-half, light, whipping, or heavy

Directions: |
Directions:Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly grease an 8" round cake that's at least 2" deep.
Whisk together the milk, cream, eggs, and vanilla.
Add the Grape-Nuts, brown sugar, and salt, stirring to combine thoroughly.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Set the pan in a larger pan, and pour in warm water to come about 3/4 up the sides of the 8" pan; this "water bath" will allow the custard to cook slowly and stay smooth.
Bake the pudding for 60 minutes; a toothpick inserted into the center will come out clean.
Remove the pudding from the oven. Allow the pudding to set for 15 to 30 minutes before serving; or cool completely, then refrigerate.
Spoon individual servings onto plates or into bowls. Top with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired. Refrigerate any leftovers. |

Notes: I have loved Grape-Nuts cereal all my life. I also love rice pudding and tapioca pudding. This is a mix of both, with a bit of a nutty flavor. Apparently it is very popular up in the New England area. It was born in Boston in the 1920's. There are a few different ways of making it. This version comes from kingarthurbaking.com
I recently found out that the custard recipe was actually on the back of the box in the early 1900's.
I made this and it was wonderful! If you have more then 4 people, I would double the recipe. Also, once it's poured in pan, i would spread around some and make sure grape-nuts are fairly even across the bottom.
