Grapenut Custard in Nanny's Memory

Ingredients

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350.

2. 2

   Combine the cereal, salt and milk while preparing the remainder.

3. 3

   Grease with butter a 4qt casserole dish.

4. 4

   In a small bowl or 2 cup measuring cup combine the eggs, vanilla and sugar. Mix until thoroughly combined and emulsified.

5. 5

   Pour the cereal and milk mixture into a mixing bowl and add the egg and sugar mixture. Stir well though do not allow to get overly foamy.

6. 6

   Pour into the greased casserole and bake 60 minutes. This is done when a knife inserted halfway from the edge to the middle comes out clean.

7. 7

   Do not attempt to overbake, it will appear underdone in the middle. Carry over cooking will handle that. Overcooked and it makes a nice albeit sweet hockey puck!
