Ingredients
- 1 lb (450 g) stale bread
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- ½ teaspoon coarse salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Notes
- Use stale bread for best results.
- Go to the day-old section of your supermarket where you can get a loaf that is perfect for croutons at half the price!
- Get fancy and rather than use a plain loaf of bread, use one flavored with herbed cream cheese or with garlic and cheese.
- Croutons are great for making stuffing. Use our Sage Sausage Stuffing Recipe or your own favorite recipe.
- Double the recipe! The croutons will last for six weeks in your cupboard.
- Even if you only have a few pieces of leftover bread, it's so worth it to scale down the recipe and make a mini-batch of croutons. This tasty touch really takes a normal weekday dinner up a few notches!
