🧂 Ingredients

4 thick slices sourdough bread, cut into 1 inch cubes (approx 4 cups bread cubes)
3 Tbsp butter

(I use salted)
3/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp sea salt

Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2 Place bread cubes on a rimmed baking sheet.
3 Melt butter and add garlic powder and salt. Pour this garlic butter mixture
evenly over the bread cubes and use clean hands to gently toss until all cubes
are evenly coated.
4 Bake for 15 minutes, or until the croutons are a light golden brown. Remove from
oven and allow to cool completely on the baking sheet before adding to soup or
salad.
