Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 3 heaping cups cut or torn bread (stale or fresh)
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil (or any flavorless high-heat oil, 30 mL)
  • ⅛ to ¼ tsp salt
  • Optional extras: ground black pepper, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, your favorite spice blends

Instruction

  • Cut: Cut or tear bread into bite-sized chunks. You can leave the crust on or tear it off, your preference!
  • Coat: Add the bread to a large saute pan or cast iron skillet and drizzle with oil. Toss until most of the bread is coated in oil. Sprinkle with salt and any extra spices you'd like.
  • Cook: Cook over medium/high heat, jostling the croutons occasionally to evenly cook. They are done when most sides are golden brown and crispy, about 5 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool briefly before serving, they're very hot!
