Herbed Croutons
1 tablespoon olive oil
2-3 garlic cloves, finely diced
2 cups of cubed LLUVIA BAKERY’s Whole Wheat bread / Garlic Baguette/ Plain Baguette
Salt and Pepper to taste
Herb mix* of your choice
Preheat oven to 200C /350F
Heat a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add olive oil and garlic and continue cooking just until garlic is heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add herb mix
Place bread cubes in a medium bowl. Pour oil – herb mixture and toss until bread cubes are evenly coated.
Transfer cubes to a baking sheet and spread evenly. Season to taste with a little salt and pepper.
Bake on the center rack of the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until croutons are golden brown. Let cool and enjoy.
If you want to speed up the baking process, you could set your oven to TOP HEAT, but make sure you watch your batch of croutons closely to prevent them from burning.
*To Make Homemade Herb Mix:
Buy assorted herbs (oregano, basil , thyme) and dry them in your oven
at 180C for about ½ hour and then powder the same.
This mix is really useful to use on baked potatoes, in soups and in pasta
