CINNAMON BLUEBERRY FRENCH TOAST

Cinnamon Blueberry French Toast image

This breakfast can be prepped ahead, which makes it convenient for entertaining. It's a go-to recipe for me when I'm hosting birthdays or holidays. My family likes it plain, so sometimes I leave out the blueberries and it tastes just as delicious. -Angela Lively, Conroe, Texas
