French Toast Casserole

I had 2 french toast casserole recipes that I liked fairly well, but one was missing what the other had and vice versa. I combined my favorite points of both and was quite pleased with the results. Enjoy!


8 cups cubed bread
8 eggs
2 3/4 cups milk
2 tsp vanilla
dash of salt
1 bag frozen blueberries
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 1/3 cups brown sugar
3 T corn syrup
Cinnamon

Place 2/3's of bread cubes in a greased 9x13 pan. Sprinkle frozen blueberries over the top then layer the rest of the bread over the berries. In a separate bowl, thoroughly beat eggs, milk, vanilla and salt. Pour egg mixture over the bread and berries. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove 30 minutes before serving and preheat oven at 350 degrees. In a bowl, mix butter, brown sugar and corn syrup thoroughly. Spread over top of bread cubes. This will take a bit of time to accomplish, but I promise the results are worth the effort. Sprinkle the top lightly with cinnamon. Bake uncovered for 35 minutes or until bubbly around the edges. You can serve this with syrup, but it's probably sweet enough as is.
