Servings: 12
Ingredients
- ½ pound (226g) bread
- ¼ cup (60mL) oil
- 1 tbs (8g) minced garlic
- 2 tsp (6g) Italian seasoning blend
- ½ tsp (2g) salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F (200C.)
- Cut up and cube bread into 1" or smaller sections.
- Place in a large bowl and pour in oil and spices. Coat bread by tossing with hands or using a spoon until well coated.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray if it isn't non-stick.
- Arrange cubes of bread on baking sheet in a single layer.
- Bake 15-25 minutes, turning over bread once halfway through baking.
- If not using immediately, reduce oven to 200F (100C) and bake an additional 30 - 60 minutes. This will further dehydrate them and keep them from going soggy.
- Cool on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container or freeze.
