Food ~ Grape Nut Pudding

I'd never heard of Grape Nut pudding before I moved to Rhode Island. Apparently, it's a vanilla custard with Grape Nuts cereal cooked in it. Nevertheless, it sounds intriguing and is on my recipes-to-try list for when it's cool enough to run the oven for an hour.

I found recipes for it in Yankee magazine and It's Rhode Island cookbook. I'm sure it would turn up in other local recipe books as well.
