Pre-heat oven to 400�F. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray.

With the tip of a sharp knife, cut a 1 1/2" wide pocket in the side of each slice of bread. Fill pockets with reserved blueberry mixture, dividing evenly. Place filled slices in egg mixture.

Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes, turning slices after 10 minutes. Serve with blueberry orange sauce.
