Equipment
- oven
- baking sheet pan
Ingredients
- ½ loaf Bread (10 oz) cut into cubes
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven at 375 degree F.
- In a large bowl, toss the bread cubes with olive oil, italian seasoning, garlic powder and pepper. Toss one more time until the bread cubes are coated evenly.
- Line a baking sheet pan with parchment paper and transfer the coated bread cubes to the baking sheet. Arrange them in a single layer.
- Bake until brown for about 15 minutes and flipping the bread cubes halfway (bake approximately 7 minutes per side).
Notes
- I always recommend preheating the oven at the right temperature. If possible use an oven thermometer, otherwise preheat the oven for at least 15 minutes.
- You can make Italian seasoning from scratch using equal parts of the following dried and ground herbs: thyme, oregano, basil, rosemary and marjoram. If you don't have all of these seasonings, blending any 2 of the above will do.
- Air-fry for 8-10 minutes at 400F/200C shaking the basket half way.
