Author's Notes

Balsamic Blueberry Sauce can be made a day ahead with the french toast and rewarmed for serving, or cooked while the Blueberry French Toast is baking. I made the french toast in muffin tins for presentation, however, they were fussy to assemble and difficult to remove from tins. A single 8"x8" pan is recommended.
