French Bread Croutons

These homemade croutons are an easy and delicious way to add texture and taste to your favorite dishes. These are better than crackers when serving dips and spreads. Great with cheeses, too.

Ingredients

1 Loaf French bread, cut crosswise in ½ inch thick circles
¼ cup salted butter
⅓ cup extra virgin alive oil

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325.

Melt butter and olive oil together. Arrange slices of French bread circles onto wax-lined baking sheet and brush tops evenly with the butter mixture. Toast until golden brown. Cool and store in an airtight container until needed.

Yield: 18-20
