Trim edges from the bread. Butter the bread generously only on one side.
Spoon a little of the sauce into the bottom of the loaf pan. Top with two
slices of bread, fitting them so they cover the entire bottom of the pan.
Spoon blueberry sauce over, using about 1/3 cupful to cover each slice of
bread. Top with two more slices of bread. Repeat until all the bread and
blueberry sauce is used up, ending with blueberry sauce. Cover. Bake for 15
minutes at 350ƒ F
Remove from oven, chill overnight.
To serve, run knife around edges of the pan to loosen. Invert onto a plate.
Cut into slices. Serve with whipped cream spooned over each slice. Garnish
with additional berries, if desired |
