It’s always a pleasure partnering with Fisher Nuts to bring you delicious recipes. I always have a great time in the kitchen experimenting with some of my favorite ingredients.
Place your bread cubes into a baking dish sprayed lightly with cooking spray.
Pour in the fresh blueberries.
Sliced almonds up next.
Place your whipping cream into a bowl of 8 large eggs.
Brown sugar and pinch of salt. Add your cinnamon, vanilla and almond extract. Whisk until well combined.
Pour mixture over bread cubes.
Take a fork and press bread cubes so they’re completely covered with the cream mixture. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until set in middle.
Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before cutting into squares. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
Enjoy!

I made this for my wife and I this morning. What a yummy treat! A delicious mixture of textures with the crunch of the almonds, the blueberries bursting and creamy custardness of the cubed bread and egg mixture.
would this work with texas toast? Looks delicious!
I’m fixing this for Christmas Brunch. You need to fix the recipe to include the eggs. Kind of an important thing to leave off.
Yes, the eggs are omitted from the printed recipe. Was making it this morning for weekend guests and had to double check the recipe.
Where you show steps at top section with individual pictures you show adding eggs. In section where you can print out recipe it does not list eggs in ingredients or show adding them in directions?
