This recipe is a great way to use up leftover bread. I always have a loaf of bread in the freezer and this is a great way to use it up before it goes bad.

I'm not a big fan of blueberries, so I used raspberries instead. It was still really good!

I added a handful of chopped walnuts to the blueberry orange sauce for a little extra crunch. It was delicious!

I didn't have any oranges on hand, so I used lemon zest instead. It turned out great!

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to my regular French toast recipe next time.

The French toast was good, but the blueberry orange sauce was a bit too tart for my liking.

This French toast was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less sugar in the blueberry orange sauce next time.
