Notes

  • Use your preferred type of bread; the recipe works with 4 slices, halved.
  • The oat milk keeps the bake dairy-free while contributing to the soft, custardy texture.
  • Maple syrup can be adjusted between 1 and 2 tablespoons according to your preferred level of sweetness.
  • Coat each piece of bread with the egg mixture before arranging it in the baking dish so the bread absorbs the custard evenly.
  • Add the wild blueberries to the remaining egg mixture, then pour everything over the assembled bread.
  • The bake is ready when the liquid has been absorbed after about 30 minutes in the 375°F oven.
