  3. Place in a food processor and grind into finer crumbs. (See notes for food processor alternatives)

  5. Bake for 10 minutes, toss, bake for 5 more minutes.
  6. If desired, place back in the food process and grind it into finer crumbs.

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.
