Ingredients

  • 3 slices of bread preferably stale
  • 30 ml olive oil
  • 30 g butter
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
  • ¼ teaspoon salt & pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon basil

Instructions

  • Cube your bread. If you're not fussed by them then leave the crusts on to save time/cut waste. 
  • Melt together your butter and olive oil. Drizzle over the cubed bread. 
  • Sprinkle on your choice of herbs/seasonings. I like garlic, salt & pepper and basil. 
  • If you want to save time/effort then brush the bread before you cube it. 
  • To make your homemade croutons a little healthier then use brown or seeded bread and use spray oil instead.
  • Bake in the oven at gas mark 4 (180c) for 15-17 minutes. They are cooked once lightly browned.
