  • 8 slices white bread
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, Shortcut
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 180° C (350° F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Mix together the salt, Italian seasoning, onion and garlic powders in a small bowl if needing seasoned croutons or crumbs.
  • Cube the bread and spread out on the baking sheet, sprinkle on the seasoning mixture. Place in the preheated oven. You need to pay attention to the bread now.
  • When the bread cubes are about half toasted, remove and use your hands to toss the bread cubes around on the sheet, place back in the oven.
  • When the bread is nicely toasted, remove from the oven and place on a rack to cool.
  • Now you just made toasted croutons for use in stuffing, OR you can crush them in your hands to make breadcrumbs (no seasoning) or seasoned breadcrumbs for use in other recipes.
