Instructions
- Prepare the Bread Recipe. If you haven't already, bake your cheddar bread according to our recipe. Once baked, let it cool completely.
- Cut the Bread into Cubes. Once the keto bread has cooled, cut it into small cubes with a sharp knife. Aim for roughly 1-inch cubes for optimal crouton size.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Toss with Olive Oil. Place the cheddar bread cubes in a large bowl. Drizzle with 2 tbsp of olive oil, and toss the cubes to coat them evenly.
- Bake the Croutons. Spread the coated bread cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Bake until Crispy. Bake the cheddar bread cubes for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through until golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them, as they can burn quickly toward the end of baking.
- Cool and Store. Once crispy, remove the croutons from the oven and let them cool. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze them for longer storage.
