Steps

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush an 8x8-inch baking dish with one quarter of the olive oil.
Spread the bread cubes on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 8 minutes, until dry and lightly crisp.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the red onion and bell pepper for 6 minutes until soft, add the garlic for 30 seconds, then stir in the spinach until wilted, about 2 minutes. Let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk the egg, egg white, milk, oregano, black pepper and salt into a custard.
Scatter half the toasted bread in the dish, top with half the vegetable mixture and half the feta. Repeat with the remaining bread, the remaining vegetables and the remaining feta.
Pour the custard evenly over the layers and press the bread down gently; let it soak for 10 minutes.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until puffed, golden and set in the center at 160°F (71°C).
Rest for 5 minutes, then cut into 4 squares and serve.
