Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk

  • 3 large eggs

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • teaspoon salt

  • ¾ cup wheat and barley nugget cereal (e.g., Grape Nuts)

  • 2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces

  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg (Optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Beat together milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl until well combined; pour into a baking dish. Sprinkle with cereal; dot with butter. Gently set the baking dish into a larger baking dish. Pour enough hot water into the larger dish to reach at least 1 inch up the sides of the inner dish.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Sprinkle with nutmeg to serve.
