Pre-heat oven to 400°F. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking
spray.
In a medium bowl, beat eggs, zest, juice, 2 tablespoons sugar and salt
until well blended. Pour into a 13" X 9" X 2" inch baking pan and set
aside.
In a small bowl combine blueberries and the remaining tablespoon of
sugar. Set aside.
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. Let stand, turning
once, until egg mixture is absorbed, about 5 minutes per side. Arrange
bread on prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with almonds. Bake until golden
brown, about 15 minutes, turning slices after 10 minutes. Serve with blueberry
orange sauce.
