These Garlic Parmesan Croutons are so addictive. I am a sucker for these crispy little bites warm right out of the oven!

Homemade Garlic Parmesan Croutons are so easy to make. Once you make these you will ask yourself why you ever bought the store bought version. These turn out so light and crispy, almost impossible not to munch on a few right out of the oven.

Whenever I have left over bread I just toss them in the freezer, until I’m ready to use them. I like to make garlic Parmesan flavor, but you can easily put your own twist on these just by adding different herbs into the mixture. These are so easy and fast to make, light and crispy and full of flavor!

You can be so creative making your own croutons, using Parmesan, garlic, different herbs to add flavor. Toss them with some olive oil and through them on a baking sheet and in about 30 minutes you’ll have the best crunchy croutons.

These Garlic Parmesan croutons are absolutely a great reason to eat more salad. I don’t know about you but croutons are the best part of a salad. I need to have that crunchy texture, but the kind that you get from the grocery store always seem to be so hard. These are fantastic in my Chicken Caesar Salad Wraps.
