During the holidays, I love to make homemade cranberry sauce. It is so much better than store-bought. When the mmmmms started rolling in and they went back for seconds, asking me to make it again for dinner, I knew this homemade french toast recipe was a hit.

Cranberry Blueberry French Toast Directions
For the Filling:
Add all filling ingredients into a saucepan or skillet. Cooking on high and stir until it comes to a boil.
Cook until cranberries burst and turn off heat. Let sit.
The filling will thicken as it sits. Set aside or refrigerate in a tight sealed container.
For the Frosting:
Combine your softened cream cheese, butter, sugar and vanilla and mix with a mixer or a spoon.
Mix until blended and there is a stiff creaminess. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
For the French Toast:
Mix your eggs, milk and cinnamon in a bowl.
Submerge each slice of bread until both sides are coated and soaked.
Spray your baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and place the slices in your baking dish.
Cover with clear plastic wrap and refrigerate until the morning.
Bake the bread at 350 for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve with your cranberry blueberry sauce and top with cream cheese frosting.
My children love french toast, but this sauce made it so much more, I am already making another batch of it for my bagels in the morning. I hope you love it as well!
