French toast is one of our favorite breakfast items here at the cottage!

Which means quick and easy is the name of the game which is why we love this delicious french toast casserole.

Directions:
Blueberry French Toast Casserole Assembly:
Lightly grease (we used butter) an 8×8-inch square casserole dish. Cut the loaf of bread into1-inch cubes discarding the ends. Place half of the bread cubes in the bottom of the dish. Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese onto the bread, then follow with half of the berries. Layer the remaining bread on top.
In a large measuring cup whisk together eggs, milk, cinnamon, maple syrup, and vanilla. Pour them evenly over the bread in the casserole dish. Press the bread cubes down gently so they will absorb the liquid.
Pour the remaining blueberries over the top of the casserole and add the topping. Cover with cling wrap and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour – overnight. When you are ready to bake it remove from the fridge and preheat oven to 350. Bake for 30 minutes. Serve hot with whipped cream, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or anything else you can think of.
