Ingredients
Casserole
- 12 lices brioche bread or white bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 ½ cups blueberries divided, fresh or frozen
- 12 eggs

- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions
- Leave your bread out for a few hours or place it on a tray at 350˚F for about 8 minutes to slightly dry it out.
- In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar and lemon juice until fluffy.
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer half of the bread cubes in the pan. Top with cream cheese mixture & half the blueberries. Top with remaining bread and blueberries.
- In a bowl, stir together the eggs, milk, syrup, and lemon zest until well mixed. Pour over the bread cubes, cover with foil, and refrigerate overnight.
- Remove the casserole from the fridge about 45-60 minutes before baking. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Mix topping ingredients together in a small bowl. Sprinkle over casserole just before baking.
- Bake uncovered 45-55 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean and is hot.
