  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 7 eggs whipped
  • 1 stick melted butter
  • 2 cups half and half

Directions:

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees, coat mini loaf pan or 9X13 casserole dish with nonstick spray and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl whip together the melted butter, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, eggs, and half and half until well blended
  3. Fold in the cubed bread and blueberries.
  4. Let mixture sit for 5-10 minutes while the bread soaks up most the liquid.
  5. Once set, spoon the mixture into prepared pan.
  6. Bake at 350 ~ the mini loaf pan only needs 30-35 mins to bake, casserole dish will take 45-50 minutes.

Tips: Prepare the bread/ egg mixture the night before for a quick and easy breakfast idea.  Just pop it into the oven after it has soaked overnight.  Adjust cooking time 5-7 minutes since it will be cold from sitting in the refrigerator overnight.
