Blueberry Cheesecake French Toast Casserole With French Bread, Blueberries, Milk, Heavy Cream, Large Eggs, Vanilla Extract, Ground Nutmeg, Sea Salt, Maple Syrup, All Purpose Flour, Salted Butter, Ground Cinnamon
If French toast studded with juicy strawberries and cheesecake filling counts as breakfast, then breakfast is definitely our favorite meal of the day. The recipe is a Yummly original created by [Sara Mellas](https://www.yummly.com/dish/author/Sara%20Mellas).
This French toast casserole comes jam-packed with cubed challah bread, blueberries, and warm spices, and is topped with a delicious cream cheese glaze.
This is a very yummy and easy to make warm dessert, which can be served as a main dish as well. The batter resembles a cheesecake, but is not as solid. Accompany with vanilla ice-cream or custard for that extra twist. =) This recipe comes from a famous German chef called Tim Mälzer, who is sometimes referred to as the German Jamie Oliver. I only substituted cherries for the gooseberries he uses.
From Martha Nesbit’s book, Savannah Celebrations. She says, “This recipe is not only perfect for brunch, but is also delicious with any menu featuring pork.” In place of the canned apples you can use six Granny Smith apples, peeled, diced and stewed in ½ cup water for 15 minutes. I had 4 ounces cream cheese left over from a cheesecake so I substituted in this for ½ cup of the Cheddar cheese. Yum!
