Blueberry Baked French Toast

blueberry-baked-french-toast-a-pinch-of-joy

Blueberry Baked French Toast is quick and easy to put together and has several options for getting it on the breakfast table.  You can make it the night before and let it set in the refrigerator overnight before popping it in the oven for a hot delicious breakfast.  You can assemble and bake it right away for breakfast or a “breakfast for dinner” dish.  Or you can assemble it and freeze it for use several weeks later.

Use a heavy textured bread — like French or Italian – because that will hold the egg mixture.  Because loaves vary in size, it’s hard to specify a quantity.  You will need enough to make two layers of half inch slices across your pan.  I used about half a loaf of a baguette (long and skinny French bread) plus a 3-4 slices.  This is great for soft leftover bread, by the way, although you may need to add another beaten egg with up to a quarter cup of milk if the bread is on the dry side.  You can usually judge after you’ve assembled the first layer whether or not this is necessary.    Serve with fruit and sausage patties or links, no syrup needed.  And just in case there are any leftovers at your house — heat in the microwave for another scrumptious breakfast the next day.
