Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a large bowl, pour scalded milk over the grape-nuts and let sit 5 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat eggs, sugar, salt and vanilla. Add to the milk and grape-nuts, and stir a couple of times.
  4. 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.
  5. Serve warm or cold in individual dessert bowls with whipped cream.
