1. Put the compote ingredients in a pan. Heat gently until the blueberries start to pop and release their juice then simmer for 2-3 minutes until jammy.
2. To make the French toast, mix together the eggs, milk, sugar and vanilla extract until the sugar has dissolved. Dip the bread in the egg mix so it is thoroughly coated. Fry slices in the butter until golden brown on both sides. Serve the French toast with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and the blueberry compote.

  Surprisingly really easy and quick to make. I had to add a bit more milk to the egg mixture as I like to soak the brioche quite well.

  I've just made this for my breakfast and it was delicious. Well, I actually made my own version of it, adding some ground cinnamon to the egg-mix and topping it with stewed peaches and plums. Yum!

  Rather than caster sugar I warm the blueberries in a bit of maple syrup to make the compote, delicious!!

  This was a BIG hit with all the family. I made it in the summer and we sat in the garden to eat it. The kids thought it was a real treat, having ice cream for breakfast!
