Why tear open a store bought bag of croutons when you can make your own in minutes?! These crunchy delights are hard to keep away from & I guarantee they might not even make it to your soup or salad…
Crunchy croutons are irresistible & made even better with parmesan. This recipe is surely a basic, but one you absolutely need handy, always…
Isn’t it funny how we purchase convenience items when the homemade version tastes so much better? That’s the case with these. Packaged croutons can be overly salty & filled with all kinds of weird spices & creepster ingredients.
These croutons are easy to prepare & completely mind blowing delish! The crispy parmesan bits are completely addictive. Tailor homemade croutons to suit your needs. Whole grain bread would be great as would gluten free loaves.
Instead of chips, pack a baggie of these up to go in the kids lunch boxes. I of course will pack some in the pocket of my ski jacket for chair lift snacks. Speaking of skiing, have I mentioned I’m off to Switzerland at the end of the month. I’m soon excited! I mean beyond!
I’m thrilled we are in January now. It’s a time to hunker down & push out lots of new recipes for you guys (before I travel again) I need many banked so I can leave home with lots to choose from to post.
This works out perfectly for my family, it means they always have food to eat!

LOVE this idea for croutons!! The flavor is great too! One of the ones I’d definitely use on my salads!
I haven’t purchased croutons from the store in years! Instead I prefer to make them at home, too! These garlic parmesan ones sound and look amazing!!! Pinned!
So true…once you go homemade you never go back! xo
Homemade croutons are the best!
These look amazing! I can’t wait to add them to my next salad!
Hi Marla!
These look great! How long can I keep these fresh? How do you recommend storing them?
Mmmm, my family LOVES croutons so Im going to have to try making some of these!
Stephanie, come back & let me know what the thought. My kids & hubs love them!
I’m never buying store-bought croutons again. Your photos make me drool every time I visit your site. Pinned.
BIG smiles! Thanks so much for your sweetness Jennie 🙂 I pinky promise to keep tempting all of you 😉
Oh yes. The best!! Great for all the winter salads. I make a roasted cabbage salad and top it with loads of croutons. Delish!
Aimee, that soup sounds divine!!
I love these, perfect salad topper! (That is, if they make it to the salad and not straight into my mouth! :))
Funny I was just thinking the other day I should make croutons for my blog because I never have and because, well, they’re not a dessert and Jan isn’t exactly a desserts month…but since yours are PERFECT!! I will just skip that ideas 🙂 Pinned!
ha! I’m surprises too that you have not posted them. It’s OK, I share. Thanks for the pin love Averie!
