BLUEBERRY FRENCH TOAST STICKS

2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup blueberry jam
8 slices day-old white bread
2 tablespoons butter
Confectioners’ sugar (optional)
Blueberries (optional)
In a shallow dish, combine eggs, milk, and vanilla. Spread jam on 4 slices of bread. Top with the remaining bread. Trim crusts and cut each sandwich into 3 strips. Dip into egg mixture, coating both sides. In a 12-inch skillet or on a griddle, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add half of the strips and cook until golden brown on each side, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining butter and strips. Sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar, if desired. Serve with blueberries, if desired. Makes 4 servings.
