Blueberry Cream Cheese French Toast

I got this recipe from my friend Lisa, it's super easy and you make it the night before!

* 1 loaf of french bread
* 4 teaspoons cinnamon, divided
* 1 8-ounce package of cream cheese, diced
* 1 cup blueberries (I used frozen and it worked great)
* 8 eggs
* 2 cups milk
* 1/3 cup maple syrup
* 1 teaspoon vanilla

Tear the bread into small, bite-size pieces and layer half of the bread chunks on the bottom of a greased 9x13 pan. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of cinnamon over the bread and the layer the cream cheese and blueberries on top. Spread the rest of the bread chunks over top and sprinkle with the rest of the cinnamon.

In a separate bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, syrup and vanilla. Pour this mixture over the bread. Cover with foil and put in the fridge overnight. The next morning, set the casserole on the counter for 30 minutes to get to room temperature. Bake the casserole at 350 for 30 minutes with the foil covering it and then 30 minutes without the foil.

Serve with maple syrup and enjoy!
