Toasted Focaccia Croutons
Ingredients
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/8 stick butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 3 1/2 cups rosemary focaccia bread, cut into thumbnail-sized pieces
Instructions
1
Mince garlic using a traditional mortar and pestle tool to create a smooth, compact paste.
2
Combine minced garlic with olive oil, Parmesan cheese, butter, salt, thyme, and onion powder in a bowl until the ingredients are well incorporated and have a uniform consistency. Allow the mixture to rest for 10 minutes.
3
Place bread cubes in a large container and generously apply the butter-garlic mixture on top, ensuring each cube is evenly coated. Cover the bowl and let it sit for approximately 30 minutes, allowing the bread to absorb the flavors.
4
Heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Arrange the bread cubes in a single layer on a cookie sheet, spreading them out evenly.
5
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping it halfway through the cooking time, until it reaches a golden brown color and is firm to the touch.
