Grape Nut Custard
- 3 cups Whole Milk
- 3/4 cups Barley Nugget Cereal (Grape Nuts)
- 3 whole Eggs
- 1/2 cups Pure Maple Syrup
- 1/8 teaspoons Salt
- 1-1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/4 teaspoons Nutmeg
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Butter or grease a 1 1/2 to 2 quart baking dish.
- In a saucepan over medium-high heat, simmer milk until hot, but do not boil (about 5 minutes).
- Stir in cereal and remove from heat; let sit about 5 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, maple syrup, salt and vanilla.
- Whisk about half the warm milk mixture, 1/4 cup at a time, into the egg mixture.
- Whisk in remaining milk.
- Pour into prepared baking dish and sprinkle with nutmeg.
- Bake for about 50 minutes in a waterbath (place baking dish in larger pan with about 1 inch of hot water in it).
- Check to see if done by inserting a knife into it near the middle - knife should come out clean and you should be able to see that while it still looks "jiggly", the custard will be set.
- Remove from oven and cool at least 30 minutes before serving, or chill and serve cold.
