Who doesn’t love French Toast!

PREHEAT OVEN TO 350º

LIGHTLY GREASE 9X13 GLASS BAKING DISH

2 8OZ PKGS CREAM CHEESE – room temp

¾ CUP SUGAR

2 TSP VANILLA EXTRACT

  Almond extract works well too but just use less

1 TSP CINNAMON

PINCH OF NUTMEG

2 LARGE EGGS

10 SLICES THICK WHITE BREAD

   Brioche works well

2 ½ CUPS BLUEBERRIES – rinsed and drained well

MAPLE SYRUP – for serving or your favorite

POWDERED SUGAR – for sprinkling

In a large bowl in your stand mixer beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg together until well combined. Add eggs, one at a time and mix well after each addition. Slowly add milk and continue mixing until all well combined.

Arrange the bread slices in the prepared baking dish and carefully spread the blueberries on top. Slowly pour the cream cheese mixture over all and let stand for 15-20 minutes before putting into the preheated oven. Bake for 35-45 minutes until golden brown.

Serve with warm syrup of your choice.

NOTE: This can be prepared the night before. Just cover well and place in refrigerator.  Let sit out for 10 minutes before placing in pre-heated oven.

BUON MANGIATI!
