How to Make Savory Bread Pudding Cupcakes

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 4 large eggs, 1/2 cup soy milk, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
Cut 6 cups day-old bread into 1-inch cubes. Add the bread cubes to the egg mixture, stirring gently to coat. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
Remove the egg mixture from the refrigerator. Ladle the bread pudding mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cup about ¾ full.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cupcakes are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread pudding cupcakes cool in the muffin tin for 5-10 minutes before carefully removing them to a serving platter. Serve warm and enjoy!
