How To Make Homemade Croutons

Ingredients

• 2-3 slices of white toast bread, diced into small cubes, crust trimmed off
• 3 tbsp of butter

Method

1. Melt butter in a large pan. Spread bread cubes in a single layer in the pan and roast over mild heat until golden brown and crispy. Stir or shake the pan occasionally.

2. Transfer the croutons onto a large sheet of absorbent kitchen paper. Let them cool down and serve immediately.

Tip: Croutons should preferably be used on the day of preparation. If you still want to prepare the croutons 1 – 2 days in advance, they are best if stored in an airtight container.

Croutons can be sprinkled on all creamy soups and salads.
