Ingredients
TOAST:
- 1 loaf French bread, cubed (approximately 16 oz.)
- 1 pkg. (about 8 oz.) havarti cheese, thickly sliced
- 6 large eggs
- 4 cups milk
- 1/4 c. sugar
- 1/4 c. light brown sugar
- 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
- 1/8 tsp. allspice
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/4 c. natural maple syrup
SAUCE:
- 1-1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 jar (12 oz.) blueberry preserves
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Arrange half of bread cubes in lightly buttered 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking pan. Top evenly with havarti cheese; cover with remaining bread cubes.
- Whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, allspice, butter and natural maple syrup in large mixing bowl; pour over bread mixture, pressing bread cubes to absorb egg mixture. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon over the top. Cover baking pan with foil.
