Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
 

  • 1 large baguette
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp minced garlic or use 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley or ½ tsp dried parsley

Instructions
 

  • Slice off the ends of the bread and cut it into thick slices, then cut those slices into cubes to make about 5 cups of bread cubes.
  • Melt the butter and the oil together in the microwave, then pour the mixture into a bowl.
    Add the minced garlic and chopped parsley, and toss the bread cubes in the bowl until they are well coated with the mixture.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the bread cubes in a single layer in the air fryer basket and air fry for 2 minutes.
    Give the basket a shake, then continue air frying for another 2-3 minutes, depending on how browned you like your croutons.
  • Once done, transfer the croutons to a bowl and let them cool down to crisp up.

Notes

Store in an airtight container or a bag for up to a week. When ready to eat, air fry the croutons at 375F for a minute or two to crisp up.
