BAKED BLUEBERRY PECAN FRENCH TOAST WITH BLUEBERRY SYRUP



Baked Blueberry Pecan French Toast With Blueberry Syrup image

Delicious, easy-to-assemble and very pretty to look at - great for special occasions. It's a little more like bread pudding than traditional French toast. Can be assembled and the blueberry syrup made the day before serving. The next morning, simply bake the French toast and reheat the syrup before serving. Comes from the Junior League "Celebrate the Rain" cookbook. Note prep time does not include letting it rest in the fridge overnight. Use freshly ground nutmeg if you can (ground is OK too) and you can use fresh or frozen blueberries, your choice.

  • To make blueberry syrup:.
  • Cook the blueberries and maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat until most of the blueberries burst, 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Pour the syrup through a sieve into a heatproof pitcher, pressing on the solids to extract as much blueberry flavor as possible.
  • Stir in the lemon juice.
  • Set the pitcher in a pan of warm water to keep warm until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • To make sure the French toast is cooked evenly, use a griddle or large skillet that is large enough to fit all of the slices of bread in a single layer.
  • If you don't have a griddle or large skillet, you can cook the French toast in batches in a regular skillet.
  • To prevent the French toast from sticking to the pan, use a non-stick cooking spray or butter.
  • Cook the French toast over medium heat so that it has time to cook through without burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the French toast. Otherwise, the slices will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the French toast immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
