Yield Makes about 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 to 8 slices day-old white sandwich bread, crusts removed
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Cut bread into 1/2-inch cubes, yielding about 4 cups. Heat a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter until bubbling. Add half the bread cubes; cook, tossing occasionally, until crisp and golden, about 2 minutes. Add 1/2 tablespoon butter to pan, swirl to melt, and cook croutons 5 minutes longer. Set aside on a plate.
  • Repeat process with remaining butter and bread cubes. Season croutons with salt and pepper, and serve.
