Remove crusts from bread and cut into 1 inch (2.5 cm) squares. Place half the bread squares in greased 10 inch (30 cm) fluted quiche pan or pie plate. Sprinkle Canadian Cream cheese cubes and blueberries over bread layer and top with remaining bread squares.

Whisk together eggs, milk, maple syrup and cinnamon; pour evenly over bread mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
