Skip the grocery store and make croutons at home! Not only are homemade croutons so easy to make yourself, they are about a hundred times better than store bought!

After you make your own croutons at home, you’ll never want to buy them at the store again. They only take about 20 minutes to make from start to finish.

Homemade croutons can be stored in an airtight storage container or storage bag on the counter for up to 3-4 days. This makes it so easy to make your own croutons ahead of time and add to your favorite salads as needed.

My favorite way to eat these croutons is on top of my Crispy Caesar Chicken Salad.

Tools to have on hand for this recipe:

  • Baking Sheet – Large baking sheet for baking croutons.
  • Knife – To cut your bread loaf into 1 inch cubes.
  • Cutting Board – A surface to cut your bread loaf into 1 inch cubes.
  • Measuring Spoons – To measure oil and and spices.
  • Mixing Bowl – For tossing your bread cubes with seasonings, butter and oil.
  • Parchment Paper – To prevent croutons from sticking to the baking sheet and easy clean up!
