Snow Day: Baked French Toast with Blueberries and Cream Cheese (gf friendly)

My kids love anything with syrup on it, so I'm trying a few new ways to do overnight French toast. Here is a recent really tasty one they loved. Enjoy!

10 slices 1/2 inch french bread or thick white bread (gluten free would work as well)

5 eggs lightly beaten 

1  C milk or half and half or 1/2 c of each

1 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. vanilla

Stir all wet ingredients together and pour over bread in a 9x13 pan

Top with 8-10 small dollops of cream cheese (1/2 tsp. each) and sprinkle blueberries (any berry would work though) and place covered in the fridge overnight. 

Bake at 350* for about 30 min. the next morning. 

Serve with toasted almonds sprinkled on top and warm syrup. So yummy!!
