Instructions

  1. Pre-heat your oven to 350 °F.
  2. Whisk together the butter, olive oil and garlic powder. ( Using minced garlic doesn't work, as it cooks too long in the oven and burns!)
  3. Place the bread cubes in a large bowl, then pour the butter mixture over top. Toss until they are coated.
  4. Scatter out evenly on a large baking sheet in one layer then bake in the oven until golden brown and crispy, anywhere from 15-20 minutes, this depends on how dry your bread was, how large the pieces are.etc. Remove and cool.
  5. Store the croutons in a covered container or plastic bag.
  6. Serve in soups or salads.
