Homemade croutons are a staple in my kitchen. Once you make your own, you’ll never want to buy processed bags of them again – no caramel color here.
These adorned a caesar salad.
Slice a baguette into thin rounds, spread on a baking sheet, and brush with canola oil (I prefer this neutral oil, but the choice is yours). Season with kosher salt, pepper, and a dusting of garlic powder. Slide into a 300 degree oven and cook until just crisp and lightly browned.
