Ingredients
  
  • 1 loaf challah bread
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Filling

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 4 oz ricotta cheese
  • 8 oz mascarpone cheese
Instructions
 
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs, milk, vanilla and sugar. Mix everything until it is thoroughly combined.
  • Separately, combine mascarpone, ricotta cheese and powdered sugar using a whisk.
  • Gently fold the blueberries into the mascarpone mixture.
  • Take the sliced challah bread and spread the blueberry mascarpone mixture in between slices. Line the slices into a 12x8 oven safe baking dish, making sure there is a layer of blueberry mascarpone between each slice.
  • Spread any leftover mascarpone within the gaps.
  • Pour the egg wash evenly over the slices of challah bread.
  • Refrigerate the assembled french toast bake to soak in the egg wash overnight. If you are in a time crunch, refrigerate and soak for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • Bake the french toast casserole for 40-45 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving!
