OVERNIGHT BLUEBERRY FRENCH TOAST CASSEROLE



Overnight Blueberry French Toast Casserole image

I made this for Christmas morning brunch, perfect to put in the oven and go open presents while it bakes. You can top with syrup or whipped cream or nothing at all. I found several different recipes similar to this one, but none had everything I wanted to do with it, so I thought I'd try to make my own. I think it is a very good start, but please, let me know what you think!

Tips:

  • Use fresh blueberries: Fresh blueberries will give your casserole the best flavor. If you don't have fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your casserole tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the casserole until it is golden brown: The casserole is done baking when it is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Serve the casserole warm: The casserole is best served warm, but it can also be served cold.
  • Top the casserole with your favorite toppings: You can top the casserole with whipped cream, maple syrup, or fruit.
