Grape-Nut Pudding - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup Grape-nuts cereal
3/4 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 quart milk, scalded
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 dash salt
ground nutmeg

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, pour scalded milk over the grape-nuts and let sit 5 minutes.
In a medium bowl, beat eggs, sugar, salt and vanilla. Add to the milk and grape-nuts, and stir a couple of times.
Pour into a greased 2-quart casserole dish. Sprinkle generously with ground nutmeg. Set the casserole dish in a larger pan and pour very hot water until halfway up the sides of the casserole dish. Bake for about 1 hour, or until a knife inserted 1 inch in the center comes out clean.
Serve warm or cold in individual dessert bowls with whipped cream.
