EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Hunting for blueberries? Look for plump, firm berries that are bluish black with a hint of silvery gray.

Blueberries are best when you store them in a moistureproof container (if possible, in a single layer) in the refrigerator no longer than 5 days. Wash and dry the berries with paper towels just before you use them.

Could use a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg to bring out the fruit flavor a bit more.

My family loved this french toast bake! I added cinnamon, because we love cinnamon and did not add any nuts. The cream cheese is not necessary, but if you put it on top as directed, make the pieces small. Next time I might substitute the cream cheese with a sprinkling of mini-marshmallows! yummy!

This is really good! fills you up so it would be perfect for a crowd. My husband loves cream cheese so I added a whole 8oz package. I really think it would have been better to drizzle the cream cheese after its baked. I also baked it for 28 minutes and turned out perfect. I'm telling you drizzle the cream cheese instead :)
