Cover and blend until blueberries are pureed. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing berries with a spoon to release their juices. Stir powdered sugar, corn syrup, and vanilla into strained mixture. Stir in enough additional whipping cream, 1 teaspoon at a time, to reach drizzling consistency.

In a large bowl combine eggs, milk, granulated sugar, melted butter, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour egg mixture evenly over bread mixture. Press lightly with the back of a large spoon to moisten all of the ingredients. Bake about 50 minutes or until top is evenly puffed and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 30 to 45 minutes. If desired, top with additional blueberries and sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar. Serve warm with Blueberry Sauce. * TIP: For dried bread cubes, Set oven @ 300ºF/150ºC. Cut bread in 1/2" cubes. Spread cubes in a shallow baking pan. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until dry, stirring twice; cool. Makes: 9 servings Better Homes & Gardens | January 2015 MM Format by Dave Drum - 03 January 2015 Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
