Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, salt, and pepper. Grease a small baking dish with olive oil or butter. Tear the bread into pieces and place them in the dish. Pour the egg mixture over the bread, ensuring all pieces are soaked. Sprinkle shredded cheese and chopped herbs on top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg is set and the top is golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
