  2. Make the bread pudding mixture. In a large bowl, combine the eggs and milk; whisk until blended. Whisk in the 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, salt, and cinnamon. Add the torn bread pieces and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes to give the bread time to soak up the milk and egg mixture.

  3. Add the blueberries. In a small bowl, toss the blueberries with the powdered sugar. Fold them into the bread and milk mixture and transfer the pudding mixture to the prepared baking dish.
