Blueberry French Toast Casserole - How To Make Blueberry French Toast Bake - Breakfast and Brunch

Cut the day-old Texas toast into cubes and place them in a 9 by 13 inch baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.

Sprinkle 1 cup of fresh blueberries on top of the bread cubes.

In a large bowl, whisk together 8 large eggs, 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract, and 2 1/4 cups evaporated milk.

Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes and mash the bread to soak up the custard.

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

The next day, prepare the topping by whisking together 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl.

Cut in 6 tablespoons of cold unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.

Sprinkle the topping over the chilled casserole.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and bake for about 55 minutes.

Let the casserole rest for about 7 minutes before serving.
