Tips:
- Choose the right bread: Use a thick, sturdy bread that can hold up to the stuffing and cooking process. Some good options include French bread, sourdough, and Italian bread.
- Don't overstuff the French toast: Too much stuffing will make the French toast difficult to cook and may cause it to fall apart.
- Cook the French toast over medium heat: This will help prevent the bread from burning and allow the stuffing to cook through.
- Serve the French toast immediately: The French toast is best when served hot and fresh. You can top it with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Mushroom herb stuffed French toast is a delicious and savory breakfast or brunch dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
