Homemade Croutons

bread

olive oil

Italian seasoning

garlic powder

salt

Black pepper (to taste)

Bread is a staple food prepared from a dough of flour and water, usually by baking. Throughout recorded history it has been popular around the world and is one of the oldest artificial foods, having been of importance since the dawn of agriculture.

Garlic powder is ground, dehydrated garlic. It is a very common seasoning. Applications include pasta, pizza, and grilled chicken. Garlic salt is simply salt plus garlic powder. (Pre-made products usually include an anti-caking agent.) Garlic powder is a common component of spice mix. It is also a common component of seasoned salt.

Black pepper

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Add bread cubes to a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat. Sprinkle in Italian seasoning, garlic power, salt and pepper. Toss to coat.

Spread the bread cubes out in a single layer on a baking sheet.

Bake until golden, tossing halfway through, about 15-20 minutes, keeping an eye on them so they don’t burn.

Remove from oven, and let cool.

Easy effortless and delicious. I made these croutons tonight along with your broccoli cheddar soup five out of five for both. Thank you for posting.

My family loves these croutons on their salad. Even to just pop them in your mouth the tastes is great! Easy to make and I have used all different types of bread to make them.

These are in the oven and the house smells wonderful!  I have made these before and we loved them.  I use whatever bread needs to be used.  This time it was 2 brioche hamburger buns and 2 slices of white bread.   Thank you for a great recipe!

I’ve made these with many different breads. They are a great way to use up leftover bread from the freezer. They always turn out great.

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear, these are the most scrumptious croutons I've ever tasted since the ones I used to get at the (now defunct) Merry Heart Tea Room in Granbury, TX. These taste so similar it takes me back many years. I made them just as the recipe instructs, and they truly are delicious. Thank you Erin!

Making these for the second time to go with potato soup!  Great recipe.
