blueberries and cream bake! {delish and easy!}

I made this recently to take to a friend who just had a baby and I LOVED it! So much that I had to write it down here to make sure I could find it again.  AND blueberries are in full swing here, all the more reason to try every new blueberry recipe I can find!  This is an easy recipe that comes together quickly and you can make it the night before you need it!

Here's the recipe!

Blueberries and Cream Bake!
1 loaf cubed french bread

8 ounces softened cream cheese
1/3 cup sugar

two large handfuls of blueberries {or more if you like}, tossed lightly with flour
cinnamon

8 eggs

1 1/2 cups milk

3/4 cup maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla
6 tablespoons melted butter

Spray a 13 by 9in dish with non-stick spray.

Layer one half of bread cubes in baking dish.


Cream together sugar and cream cheese and spread over layer of bread.  A bit tricky but doable! Add blueberries over cream cheese.  Add remaining bread.  Sprinkle with cinnamon to your liking.  
Mix remaining ingredients and pour over bread; press bread with spatula to saturate. Cover and refrigerate overnight.


Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 to 50 minutes or until set and golden.
