Brown Butter Croutons

• porții: 4 cups

Ingrediente

6 oz. country-style bread, torn into 1" irregular pieces (about 4 cups)

10 garlic cloves, smashed

4 Tbsp. unsalted butter

Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

Instrucțiuni

Preheat oven to 375°. Place bread in a large bowl. Cook garlic and butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, swirling often, until foaming subsides, butter turns golden brown, and garlic is fragrant, 6–8 minutes. Drizzle garlic butter over bread and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper.

Spread out bread mixture on a small rimmed baking sheet. Bake croutons until deep golden brown and crisp, 20–25 minutes. Let cool, then pluck out and discard garlic cloves.

Do Ahead: Croutons can be made 1 week ahead. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
