Simple Ingredients
- Bread: I think French bread is the best bread for this casserole, but you can use other bread varieties like sourdough bread, brioche, challah, and croissants. Any of these options would work nicely.
- Blueberries: You can use fresh blueberries or thawed frozen blueberries.
- Eggs: Use large, if your eggs are medium or small you may want to add a couple more.
- Milk: Whole milk for the full richness in the flavor profile
- Spices: Cinnamon and ground nutmeg
- Vanilla extract
- Brown Sugar: Either light or dark will work. I also top it with optional powdered sugar
- Flour: all-purpose flour for topping
- Butter: keep it cold and cut into small pieces
- Pecans: or other chopped nuts for topping. You can omit the nuts if desired.
