Ingredients

  • 1/2 loaf sourdough bread
  • 2 tsp mixed herbs or herbs du Provence
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced (optional) add if you'd like a garlic flavored crouton

Instructions

  • Turn on the broiler to high.
  • Tear or cut sourdough bread into 1 ½ to 2-inch pieces and place in a large bowl.
  • Drizzle olive oil over the bread and then sprinkle with herbs. If you are making garlic croutons, add the garlic to the olive oil before pouring over bread cubes.
  • Season with a pinch each of salt and pepper.
  • Toss to distribute the oil and seasonings.
  • On a baking sheet, spread bread cubes in a single layer and broil until the croutons are browned; toss once or twice to brown all sides. Note: You’ll need to keep an eye on these as they broil, as they could burn quickly.
  • Remove when croutons are golden and toasted on the outside while still tender on the inside.
