Easy Overnight Blueberry French Toast Casserole Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, divided
• 2 cups blueberries, divided
• 2 loaves French bread, cubed
• 2 cups milk
• 8 eggs eggs
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

1. Gather all of your ingredients.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons of milk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy, then gently fold in 1 cup of fresh blueberries.
3. Line the bottom of a 10x14-inch baking dish with a layer of bread cubes. Spread the prepared cream cheese mixture evenly over the bread layer. Top with the remaining bread cubes.
4. In a separate large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of milk, eggs, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour this mixture evenly over the bread cubes. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of blueberries over the top. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight. Remove from the refrigerator 30-60 minutes before baking to allow it to come to room temperature.
5. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Carefully remove the foil and continue baking until the center is set, approximately 30 minutes.
