Ingredients
  

  • Bread
  • Olive Oil
  • Seasonings of Choice

Instructions
 

  • Cut your bread into small chunks and put them in a bowl. They don’t have to be perfect.
  • Toss them in olive oil. This is where you’re going to have to eye it up. They just need to be coated well to make sure they get crispy.
  • Toss them in your seasonings. Go wild here! Choose whatever seasonings your heart desires. I like to do garlic and oregano or italian seasoning. I also think these would be great with some parmesan cheese thrown in too.
  • Bake at 375 for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. We’ve pretty much all seen croutons before so you are just looking to get them browned like store bought croutons. Keep an eye on them!
  • Allow them to cool and store in an airtight container.

Notes

These only store for a few days before they will start to get mushy.
