Italian Seasoning (Optional)
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
- Slice the bread into 1-inch cubes to create 4 cups.
- Place in a food processor and grind into finer crumbs. (See notes for food processor alternatives)
- Arrange in a single, even layer on 1-2 baking sheets.
- Bake for 10 minutes, toss, bake for 5 more minutes.
- If desired, place back in the food process and grind it into finer crumbs.
- Add Italian seasonings after baking if desired, 1.5 teaspoons of seasoning for every cup. See notes for seasoning recipe.

Notes
- Food Processor Alternatives:
- Seasoning recipe above is for 2 cups of breadcrumbs, which is what this recipe yields.
- Option 1: Bake the cubed bread until it's firm, let it cool, and place it in a Ziploc freezer bag. Run a rolling pin over it or use the back of a large spoon to crush it up into small bits.
- Option 2: Freeze the bread whole and run along a cheese grater once it's frozen to create small pieces.
