Cornbread Croutons

Next time you make cornbread, make a double batch!  You’ll want leftovers for cornbread croutons!

 

Cornbread croutons are good on all sorts of salads.  They are particularly wonderful on Caesar salads and southwestern-type salads, like our Loaded TexMex Salad.  Put them on chili, tomato soups, bean soups, vegetable soups–or whatever sounds good to you. 

Cornbread Croutons

Ingredients

  • 4 cups cubed leftover cornbread
  • olive oil, salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Put the cornbread cubes on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt an pepper. Spread the cubes out in a single layer with some space between them.
  • Bake until the croutons are crisp and golden brown, 20-25 minutes depending on how large your croutons are. Cool completely on the pan. When completely cool you may store the croutons in an airtight container.

It's going to be really cold, and I'm actively dreading it.  I think I'll just stay inside and cook.
