Ingredients

• 1 loaf French bread
• 8 large Eggs
• 2 cups Milk
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 cups Fresh blueberries
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Maple syrup

Directions

Step 1

Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.

Step 2

Slice the French bread into 1-inch thick pieces and arrange them in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well blended.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread slices, ensuring all pieces are soaked. Gently press down on the bread to help absorb the liquid.

Step 5

Evenly sprinkle the fresh blueberries over the bread and egg mixture.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the butter, brown sugar, and all-purpose flour until crumbly to create a streusel topping. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the top of the blueberries.

Step 7

Cover the casserole dish tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and freeze if preparing for later use. If baking immediately, let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes to allow the bread to soak more thoroughly.

Step 8

When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove any plastic wrap or foil before baking.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before serving. Drizzle with maple syrup if desired.
