WHAT YOU NEED…

  • Sourdough Bread: Bread is the key to making croutons. We love sourdough but you can your baguette, focaccia, ciabatta, rye, or nearly any type of bread.
  • Garlic: We used granulated garlic for ease and speed. You could also use fresh garlic, roasted garlic, or garlic confit.
  • Nutritional Yeast: brings a cheesy note with hints of umami. It is one of those ingredients that if you overdo it can add a layer of bitterness, so steady on.
  • Salt: Yep, salt makes everything taste better.

Chefs Tips

  • Coat the croutons evenly.
