How To Make Sourdough Croutons (Homemade)

Homemade sourdough croutons are made from sourdough bread, which is known for its distinct tangy flavor and chewy texture due to the fermentation process it goes through. These croutons are small, crispy, and flavorful cubes of old, stale or toasted sourdough bread that add texture and taste to many dishes.

To make sourdough croutons, first pick out your sourdough bread, ideally stale and old. Then, you’ll slice the crispy bread into cubes of croutons. If your bread isn’t stale, leave it out, as staling the bread is important because it helps the croutons hold their shape and develop a satisfying crunch when toasted.

Next, the best homemade croutons require tasty seasoning! With olive oil, you’re going to whisk together: garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Toss your croutons in your seasoning and transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 mins, tossing every 5 mins or so. Then transfer to a wire cooling rack and sprinkle with salt!
