Homemade Croutons Are Better Than Store Bought
What I especially love about this recipe is that these croutons taste so fresh, unlike the store-bought croutons that taste “old” and “stale”. They come out very crispy, airy, and every bite has a shattering crunch. Seriously, garlic herb Parmesan croutons are the best homemade croutons! What’s more, it takes less than 25 minutes to make them, from prep time to out of the oven. Easy peasy, quick and tasty!
How To Make Croutons
I think you are going to love this croutons recipe because it’s so quick and easy to make. The deliciousness that comes from slices of day-old bread and some fresh herbs is simply amazing. If you have leftover or day-old bread on hand, this is an excellent recipe to help you use it up.
What Kind Of Bread Should I Use
Instead of Italian bread or a package of stuffing cubes, when I’m making croutons, I use slices of regular sandwich bread. They turn out great, and it costs less money to make them; it’s a win-win!
Options For Fresh Herbs
When I make garlic herb Parmesan croutons, I use fresh parsley but you can use any fresh herbs that you like. Or if you just want garlic croutons, you can make this recipe without any herbs. This Garlic Herb Parmesan Croutons recipe is from Epicurious, but adapted a little bit to fit what little G likes to eat.
