This is a easy recipe because you won't have to wake up early in the morning to make it, all you have to do is soak the French toast overnight like bread pudding and in the morning all you need to do is add the topping and pop it in the oven.

- Sprinkle pecans and blueberries evenly over bread mixture. Cut 1/2 stick butter into pieces and in a small saucepan heat with remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar, stirring, until butter is melted. Drizzle butter mixture over bread and bake mixture 20 minutes, or until any liquid from blueberries is bubbling.
