For some of us classic French toast—not really French or toasted to be fair unless we’re talking pain perdu—is enough on a weekend morning to make it feel exceptional. For others it’s a casserole of a bust because baking it in one big pan is way more fun than dipping and baking it over and over again while non-cooks pass by and steal slices before you can even sit down. But I’m going to argue that once you’ve had a British bread pudding dish elevated by the smallest step of buttering the bread before spreading it out in a pan there’s no other way.

Perfect Blueberry Muffins | Smitten Kitchen with Deb Perelman
Normally the bread would be sprinkled with raisins and the custard would have a little bit of nutmeg or other warming spices but Casa SK has a bit of a blueberry problem right now and her name is Anna. No matter how many we put out for her or how slowly we encourage her to eat them within a minute of them landing on the tray in her high chair they’ve been sucked into her little mouth and she’s angrily swatting at them and screaming for more. [Sidequest: Emily Post board books…] Because we’re a little afraid of what will happen if we run out we have a surplus of blueberries in the fridge but even if you don’t have that problem you should still make them because if you haven’t already stuffed blueberries with lemon sugar between slices of buttered bread and poured a vanilla custard over the whole thing and baked it until the blueberries ooze out the middle is luscious and the top is crisp and golden you’re in for a very happy weekend.
