Directions
Freezer Blueberry French Toast Casserole, A healthier twist on blueberry french toast casserole You can make a bunch and freeze before baking for an easy brunch , why the egg substitute? can i just use 1 cup of eggs?, This tasted wonderful! I doubled the recipe to make a 9×13 casserole size I quadrupled the amount of blueberries, and I’m glad I did To make spreading the cream cheese easier, I froze a brick of reduced-fat cream cheese and then shaved off pieces using a sharp knife This allowed for it to crumble across the middle layer and was nicely distrubted I did not make the sauce, and I don’t think it was needed I served this when I had company staying with us All the children complained about having to eat this, so I guess it’s not a child-friendly dish However, all the adults loved it This also reheats well
