In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vegetable oil until they are combined.

Add in the diced onion, mushrooms, minced garlic, and all of the seasonings. Mix everything together well.

Add the cooled bread cubes into the bowl and mix everything together again until everything is evenly coated.
-
Grease a baking tray and spread the semmelknödel mix into it. Bake the mixture in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping it over halfway through the cooking time until it becomes a golden-brown colour.

Serve the Semmelknödel mit Pilzen and enjoy!
