Description
Make the best of your leftover biscuits by turning them into crunchy, garlicky croutons that you can munch on for snacks, toss in your salad or use them to top a soup or even make a tasty stuffing. These homemade croutons are every bit as good as any crouton you’d get at a restaurant and they’re SUPER easy to make!
Ingredients
- 3 cups leftover biscuits, cut into 3/4 inch chunks
- 1/4 olive oil
- 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Cut the biscuits (or other leftover bread) into roughly 3/4-inch chunks. Set them in a medium mixing bowl.
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil with the seasonings, salt & pepper.
- Drizzle the olive oil mixture over the bread chunks. Gently toss to mix and coat all the biscuit bits.
- Put the croutons on a baking sheet that is oiled or covered with silicon baking mat. Spread them out so it’s a single layer and all of the croutons have a little space to themselves.
- Bake at 375 F. for about 15 minutes, until golden brown. Use immediately, or store in a bag and re-toast as needed if the croutons lose their crunch.
Notes
To re-toast croutons, set them on a baking sheet in a 325 F. oven for 5 – 10 minutes or until crunchy. Watch them closely and remove as soon as they’re nicely toasted!
