Ingredients

  • 1 loaf gluten free bread
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning or herbs de provence
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Make homemade gluten free bread first if desired. You can also use store-bought bread.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Place bread on a cutting board and cut into 3/4 inch cubes with a knife.
  • Lay onto the baking sheet or into a large bowl.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and spices. 
  • Mix well to combine and evenly coat the bread cubes with oil and seasonings.
  • Spread evenly on the parchment lined baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes. The edges should start to turn a little golden brown.

Notes

  • You can use any kind of bread. Homemade or store-bought bread will work for this recipe. Stale and fresh bread will also work.
  • For this recipe, I love the flavor olive oil adds. You could also substitute with melted butter or avocado oil.
