Recipe Tin Project: Grape-Nuts Baked Custard

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups milk, scalded
• 2 eggs, slightly beaten
• 1/3 cup Grape-Nuts cereal
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/8 teaspoon salt

PREPARATION

1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
2. In a medium bowl, combine eggs, sugar, and salt. Gradually add milk, mixing until thoroughly combined. Then, add vanilla and Grape-Nuts and stir until incorporated.
3. Pour mixture into an 8×8-inch baking dish. Make a hot water bath by placing the baking dish in a large roasting pan filled with 2-inches of hot water. (You want water to come halfway up the outside of the custard dish.)
4. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. “Serve plain or with cream or cool whip.”
