Ingredients

• 1 cup Grape-Nuts cereal
• 2 cups whole milk
• 2 large eggs
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 cup whipped cream (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and lightly grease a 1.5-quart baking dish with butter.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until warm, but not boiling. Remove from heat.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the warmed milk to the egg mixture while whisking continuously to temper the eggs.

Step 5

Stir in the Grape-Nuts cereal and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to allow the cereal to soften.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and dot the top with small pieces of butter.

Step 7

Place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan and create a water bath by pouring hot water into the roasting pan until it reaches halfway up the sides of the baking dish.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the pans to the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the pudding is set in the center and a knife inserted comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the baking dish from the water bath and allow the pudding to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm or chilled, topped with a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
