Ingredients

4 cups bread, cut into cubes (I used sourdough)
4 tablespoons butter, melted
½ teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon dried parsley

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter, garlic salt, and dried parsley.
Place the cubes of bread on a sheet pan. Drizzle with the garlic butter mixture and toss until the cubes are coated.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, stirring halfway through, or until the cubes are light golden brown.
Store in an airtight container.

Notes

You can substitute olive oil for the butter if you prefer. Then, of course, they are not “garlic butter croutons” but they are still really delicious.
