Sourdough Croutons

Sourdough Croutons are crisp cubes of bread seasoned with Italian herbs, garlic powder, and black pepper, tossed in olive oil then oven-baked until golden brown. Using sourdough bread adds a tangy depth of flavor, while the seasoning mix gives a balanced savory profile that complements salads and soups. These croutons offer a crunchy texture with aromatic spices, enhancing simple dishes with a homemade touch.

Description

This recipe transforms sourdough bread into crunchy croutons by cutting it into cubes and coating with olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Baking at a high temperature crisps the cubes evenly, creating a crunchy exterior and slightly chewy interior. The Italian seasoning blend infuses herbal notes such as oregano and basil, and the garlic powder adds gentle pungency.

Sourdough bread adds a subtle sour tang that deepens the flavor of the croutons beyond plain bread. These croutons can be used to add texture and flavor to salads, soups, or as a snack on their own. They store well in an airtight container and re-crisp quickly if needed.
