Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 1/2 tablespoon butter. Add onion; cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1 cup mushrooms; cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, 1 cup milk, the Italian seasoning and garlic powder. Stir in bread and mushroom mixture until bread is fully soaked. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Bake, uncovered, until golden and set, 35–40 minutes.

Chef Tip: Have a different kind of bread on hand? Artisan-style loaves like Italian, sourdough, ciabatta, brioche, whole wheat or multigrain all work well in this dish.
