Crunchy Ranch Croutons image

Instead of throwing away any stale bread, try this recipe for crunchy croutons. Enjoy on salads, on top of casseroles, soups, as stuffing for veggies or fish or meat. I have included variations too!

Time 25m

Yield 1 batch

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 loaf sliced bread (best if bread is slightly stale)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, melted (butter or margarine)
1 (1 ounce) envelope dry ranch dressing mix
1 (1 ounce) envelope caeser salad dressing mix or 1 (1 ounce) envelope buttermilk salad dressing mix

Steps:

  • Cut crust from bread and discard the crust.
  • Brush both sides of each slice of bread with olive oil, melted butter or margarine.
  • Slice bread into 1/2-inch strips; turn and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • Optional:.
  • Place bread cubes in a plastic zipper bag; sprinkle with dry salad dressing mix to act as dry seasoning. Securely seal bag and shake, coating bread cubes with dry salad dressing mix.
  • Spread cubes flat on baking sheet. Preheat oven to 325°F Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet.
  • Note: For bigger croutons, use "Texas Toast" style bread and slice into larger 3/4-inch cubes.

These croutons are awful! They're too hard and they taste like cardboard.

I'm not sure what happened, but my croutons came out burnt. I guess I need to watch them more closely next time.

I've never been a big fan of croutons, but these ones are actually really good. They're not too hard or too soft, and they have a great flavor.

These croutons are a great way to use up leftover bread. They're also a healthier alternative to store-bought croutons.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my croutons turned out soggy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The croutons were a bit too salty for my taste, but overall they were still good.

I tried making these croutons last night, and they turned out perfectly! I used a mixture of white and wheat bread, and they were so crispy and delicious. I'll definitely be making them again.
