My parents used to serve this recipe as a dessert at the restaurant they owned when I was a child.
I used to have this for dessert at a restaurant in Glouscester, MA many years ago. It was great then and I love it now with this recipe. They always topped it with a dollop of whipped cream and I did too!

I loved this recipe! My mom used to make it when I was little and she often would eat most of it herself. Now I remember why! the custard is very creamy and the grains add a nice distinguishing texture. I made it with raisins and also added cinnamon to the top instead of stirring it throughout. The custard was so fine it didn't need any embellishment.
This recipe is amazing!! Other ones you have to cook it all on the stovetop before baking; this one you just combine the ingredients and bake. Mine didn't need the entire hour, it was ready in 45 minutes. Add plenty of nutmeg and enjoy this wonderful, old-fashioned treat.
Being from Connecticut, of English heritage, and growing up on a dairy farm this was one of our favorite goodies Mom made. My husband used this recipe (okay, I picked it out) because I needed something delicious after knee replacement surgery and requested this. It was like Mom wrapping her arms around me. Just perfection!! It did take 1 hr and 5 min to bake to perfection.
1 hour is definately too long, when you bake custard that long it tightens all the protiens and comes out watery, next time i will start testing for doneness at about 35 to 40 minutes
Was the restaurant in Gloucester Amelia's? That's where I first had this. This version has more grapenuts, next time I'd put in half the amount. I doubled the recipe and served it with whipped cream, delicious!
Out of this world delicious!! Thank you for sharing! GrapeNuts no longer have the recipe on their boxes.
I was looking for a grapenut pudding from my childhood. Although this one was close it just didn't have the same taste. Had I not tasted my Mom's, this one might have earned a 5 star rating.
This grapenut pudding as i call it, is deilcious. It's great for breakfast too. Very similar to the one my Nana made when i was little.
I have been searching for a recipe for cup custard with grape nuts for so long! My mom made this often and we could have it for breakfast, a snack and dessert! I have not made this yet because I now live in Australia and it seems that Grape Nuts are not sold here. If anyone can suggest a substitute for Grape Nuts, I’ll try it! Heartwarming memories…….
