Homemade Croutons

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (OR 200°C).

Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with olive oil spray.

Spread the cubed bread in an even layer onto the prepared pan. Lightly spray with olive oil spray and sprinkle with a few generous pinches of kosher salt (more or less to your preference).

Bake on the middle rack of your preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until the bottom of the croutons are golden brown. Let cool before adding to soups or salads. For crispier croutons bake for an additional 2 to 3 minutes (or longer).
