Rye Croutons Recipe

Rye Croutons Recipe

  • ¼ cup (50 ml) melted butter or olive oil (or a combination of both)
  • 8 slices (about 2½ cups [625 ml) rye bread, crusts removed and cubed
  • Baking sheet
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C)
  2. In a bowl stir together butter or oil and, if desired, the ingredients for one of the variations below. Add bread cubes; toss until lightly coated. Spread in a single layer on baking sheet (or shallow baking dish). Bake, stirring once, for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Set aside to cool before using. If stored croutons lose crispness, spread out on a baking sheet; bake at 300°F (150°C) for 3 to 5 minutes or just until hot and crisp.
