Overnight Orange-Blueberry Baked French Toast

blueberry-orange-baked-french-toast-2
this month, the recipe redux has challenged us to share a dish worthy of gracing a celebratory brunch table.
this time of year is full of sunshine, flowers, and showers… whether celebrating babies, marriages, graduates, moms & dads, or just the end of winter. the best kind of brunch food is the kind you can prepare the day before and just pop in the oven while caring to last minute details.
honestly, most brunches you attend include tables full of gluten, leaving your gluten-free plate filled with a spoon-full of fruit. but this dish is simply prepared with gluten-free store-bought bread. so if you eat gluten-free or if someone you invite to a shower does, please make this. simple, delicious, and everyone’s belly will be delighted.
