Blueberry French Toast Casserole
Yummy brunch idea or mother's day recipe.
Slice 6 croissants open lengthwise and place 6 halves face up in a casserole dish.
Mix 9 eggs, 1 3/4 cups milk and 1/3 cup syrup. Beat until thoroughly blended.
Sprinkle most of one container of blueberries over the croissants, then pour about half the egg mixture over the croissants. Push any dry portion of the croissants down into the mixture to make sure all are moist.
Place the remaining croissant halves face down in the dish so that they cover the first group. Sprinkle the rest of the blueberries over the dish. Pour the rest of the egg mixture over the croissants repeating the above procedure. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar or serve with syrup.

Dutch Baby with strawberries and cream cheese topping = Yummo!
I bought a huge amount of strawberries last week and I was trying to figure out what to do with them all. So I perused some recipes and combined a few ideas. It turned out awesome!
I started with a Dutch baby. To me it tastes like a thick crepe. We usually make one at least once on the weekend sprinkled with cinnamon and powdered sugar.
Heat oven to 400. While oven is heating place 9x12 glass pan in oven with a stick (or T less) of butter so that the butter melts.
Mix 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk, 1/4 cup sugar, 4 eggs, a sprinkle or so of cinnamon, a t. of vanilla. (Check on butter. Take it out of the oven when it is almost all melted.)
Pour batter into pan.
Bake for 15 minutes
Sift some powdered sugar on top.
This alone makes for a tastey treat.

I had already sliced up a bunch of strawberries and put 2-3 T of sugar on them so that they were making a nice syrup.
Next I took 1 package of cream cheese, a 1/4 cup or less of sugar, a dallop or so of plain yogurt (optional) and whipped until smooth.
I spread this mixture on the puffed pancake (Dutch Baby) and spooned the strawberries on top. Oh it was Heavenly.

Pancake Bananas
This is a really easy recipe and quite delicious, especially when hot off the griddle. They're good for breakfast, brunch, snacks, and even dessert.
Mix up a standard pancake batter (adding cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamon, or ginger to taste are all good ideas though).
Slice your banana(s) on the bias (diagonally) so it has more surface area to cover with batter. Slices must be thick enough not to bend under the weight of the batter and thin enough to cook batter on griddle (1/4 inch is ideal).
Dip slices in batter and fry on hot griddle like you would regular pancakes. I found the whole process worked easier with chopsticks.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 4 days (that's a guess, I think we had ours longer than that, but I made quite a lot of them).
