Ingredients

Blueberry Sauce

  • 1 pint fresh blueberries, or frozen
  • cup water

French Toast Batter

  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • cup whole milk,
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon, or more or less to taste
  • 10-12 slices Texas Toast
  • pure maple syrup, for topping

Instructions

Blueberry Sauce

  • In a saucepan over medium heat add blueberries and water.
  • Cook over medium heat until boiling. After it comes to a boil, use the back of a spoon or potato masher to gently mash the blueberries. The blueberries should start to break down in 10-15 minutes, resulting in 1 cup sauce.
  • Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly while you prepare the French toast batter.

French Toast Batter

  • In a large, wide bottom bowl, beat eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon with wire whisk until smooth. Pour in the half (½ cup) of the blueberry sauce and whisk until combined. Reserve the other half of the sauce for topping.
  • Heat a large skillet to medium.
  • Dip bread into blueberry batter (do not soak it). Then, place on heated skillet and cook 2-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  • Serve with room temperature butter, maple syrup, and top with the reserved blueberry sauce.
