Steps:
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add bacon; cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove bacon with tongs, drain on paper towels, and set aside. Add onions to skillet with bacon drippings; cook, stirring constantly, until onions begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook until tender and most of the liquid released has evaporated, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer mixture to bowl to cool. When cool, finely chop half the mixture, and set aside the other half.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, Parmesan, and salt. Stir in the finely chopped vegetable mixture.
- Place the bread strips in a shallow baking dish large enough to hold them in a single layer. Pour egg mixture over bread; soak 10 minutes. Turn strips over, and soak until bread is soaked through, about 10 minutes more.
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet; set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry half the bread strips until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to wire rack; place in oven while cooking remaining bread.
- Wipe out skillet; repeat with remaining butter, oil, and bread. Keep in oven until ready to serve. Heat remaining onion mixture in a small skillet until warm. Serve French toast warm, topped with reserved onion mixture, crumbled bacon, and Parmesan, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat air fryer to 350°F. In a bowl, gently beat together two eggs, a sprinkle of salt, a few heavy shakes of cinnamon, and small pinches of both nutmeg and ground cloves. Butter both sides of bread slices and cut into strips. Dredge each strip in the egg mixture and arrange in air fryer (you will have to cook in two batches). After 2 minutes of cooking, pause the air fryer, take out the pan, making sure you place the pan on a heat safe surface, and spray the bread with cooking spray. Once you have generously coated the strips, flip and spray the second side as well. Return pan to air fryer and cook for 4 more minutes, checking after a couple minutes to ensure they are cooking evenly and not burning. When egg is cooked and bread is golden brown, remove from air fryer and serve immediately. To garnish and serve, sprinkle with icing sugar, top with whip cream, drizzle with maple syrup, or serve with a small bowl of syrup for dipping. amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "keyproduct02-20"; amzn_assoc_ad_mode = "manual"; amzn_assoc_ad_type = "smart"; amzn_assoc_marketplace = "amazon"; amzn_assoc_region = "US"; amzn_assoc_design = "enhanced_links"; amzn_assoc_asins = "B005GM15HE"; amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit"; amzn_assoc_linkid = "7376ee1b8a247c944fae05281416ddc8";

Steps:
- 1. Trim the crusts off the bread and cut into sticks.
- 2. Whisk together the eggs, milk and vanilla. Combine the sugar and cinnamon on a shallow plate.
- 3. Melt 1 tablespoon butter and heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip the sticks in the egg batter letting the excess drip off. Add them to the skillet in single layer with space between them. Flip them after the bottom has browned. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Work in batches adding more butter and oil if needed.
- 4. Remove from the pan and using tongs roll them in the cinnamon sugar.
Tips:
- Use stale bread for the best results. Stale bread absorbs the egg mixture better and results in a crispier French toast stick.
- Cut the bread into thick slices, about 1 inch thick. This will help the French toast sticks stay together and not fall apart during cooking.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the French toast sticks. Leave some space between each stick so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook the French toast sticks over medium heat. This will help them cook through without burning.
- Flip the French toast sticks halfway through cooking. This will ensure that they are cooked evenly on both sides.
- Serve the French toast sticks immediately with your favorite toppings.
