  • cut bread into 1 inch thick chunks. no need to discard the edges at all.
  • in a bowl add bread chunks to this add olive oil, garlic powder, and rest of the seasoning.. u can add your choice of seasoning too...mix well...bread should be coated well with oil and all other mixture...
  • preheat oven to 350 degree F. in a baking sheet spread the bread pieces in a single layer and put in oven...
  • u need to keep an eye on bread as it might burn and also turn from time to time..till it becomes crisp and light golden brown
  • taste it if it crunchy.  then the croutons are ready, allow it to cool down and store in air tight container or Ziploc bags.
  • serve with soups, salads or eat just like dt...i bet, u will never buy croutons from store ever.
