French Toast Dreams and Checking in

Hello friends! On the blog today, I’m sharing a favorite recipe I posted long ago. It’s an easy and yummy blueberry french toast recipe perfect for breakfast any time of the day. Because I believe you can have breakfast for any meal. (smile). I’m also reaffirming my inability to multi task. With school and the shops and household responsibilities it’s leaving me very little time for anything else. But I am still posting the TFT Blog Hop every Thursday. Thank you for your patience and your encouraging and thoughtful comments and messages. You are the BEST!

I think I’ve mentioned in the past that I sometimes dream in French. I know that may seems quite odd since I know very little French, in spite of the fact I lived there for 4 years when I was young.(smile) Well it happened again last night. I average about two French dreams a month. I woke up craving french toast with blueberries. So I’m re-sharing a post from long ago, enjoy.

What You Need

• 3 Cups frozen blueberries (or fresh)
• 1 Cup water
• 1/2 Cup Splenda (or sugar)
• 1 Rounded Tbsp. corn starch
• Saucepan
• Small bowl
• Whisk
• Cookie cutters (optional)

Before You Start :In a small bowl stir together corn starch and 3 Tbsp. of water mix well to dissolve and set aside. You can prepare your French toast while the blueberry sauce is cooking or make it before the toast is ready ( you’ll need to re-heat it.)

Let’s Make It! In a saucepan combine 2 cups blueberries, 1/2 cup of water and Splenda (or sugar) stir to combine. Heat over medium-high heat until you achieve a low boil (about 3-4 minutes) some blueberries will start to break apart. Add prepared corn starch and stir to combine. Bring back to a boil stir gently and reduce heat to low and simmer 3-5 minutes, or until sauce reaches a consistency similar to syrup. Note- you may need to add water, just a little bit, (about a tablespoon  at a time) if the blueberry sauce gets too thick.  Remove blueberry sauce from heat. Add the remaining blueberries and stir gently. Serve poured over the top of the French toast or on the side.

Makes enough blueberry sauce for 4-6 generous servings

*Katie’s Tidbits, this is a wonderful sauce recipe for waffles and crepes too!
