Best Grape Nut Pudding Recipes

GRAPE NUT PUDDING

Steps:

• Butter a 1 1/2 quart casserole.
• Soak Grape-nuts in hot water for a short while.
• Put into the casserole.
• Add the butter, milk, sugar, eggs, and vanilla; mix well.
• Bake in a pan of water in a 350°F oven for 30-45 minutes, maybe more, depending on your oven.
• Before taking out, check to see if it is firm in the middle.

GRAPE-NUT PUDDING

Steps:

• 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.

GRAPE NUT CUSTARD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and heat a kettle of water to just below boiling.
• Generously butter the bottom and sides of a glass baking dish (either 13 x 9 or 9 x 9 - see notes).
• Place the Grape-Nuts cereal in a large bowl and set aside.
• Scald the milk in the microwave or a saucepan and pour it over the cereal, reserving 1/2 cup for tempering the eggs.
• Set aside for 5 minutes to start softening the cereal.
• While the cereal soaks, whisk the eggs, vanilla, sugar, cinnamon, and salt together until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is a little frothy.
• Start whisking the reserved milk into the eggs, 1 tablespoon at a time.
• Once the eggs are tempered, add them to the bowl with the milk and cereal.
• Stir to combine, pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle some extra cinnamon and nutmeg over the top.
• Place the baking dish into the center of a large roasting pan and carefully pour the hot water into the outer pan to a depth of about 1-inch. If you aren't familiar with baking custard in a water bath (bain-marie), click here for a more detailed explanation.
• Carefully place the pan in the oven and bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the pudding pulls away from the edges of the dish slightly and a butter knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Remove the pudding from its water-filled outer container and set the dish on a cooling rack to cool completely.
• To serve, cut into squares for serving and top with whipped cream if desired.
