Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F.
  2. Place bread in a pan in the oven to dry, about 10 minutes. Flip and let dry another 5-10 minutes until it is dry to the touch. Do not brown or toast.
  3. Remove from oven and let cool before turning into breadcrumbs.
  4. For fine breadcrumbs, places bread in a food processor and pulse a few times to reach desired consistency.
  5. For coarse breadcrumbs, place bread in a freezer bag and use a rolling pin to crush to desired consistency.

Notes

  • Refrigerate up to 1 month or freeze up to 4 months. To make seasoned bread crumbs, add 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano and 1/2 teaspoon dried basil to two cups of prepared breadcrumbs.
  • To Make Panko Bread Crumbs: Remove the crusts from a loaf of wheat or white bread. Crumble it into coarse crumbs either with a food processor. Bake at 300°F to dry taking care not to toast them, about 10 minutes.
