- 350 g cubed sourdough bread fresh or stale
- 1 tbsp italian seasoning blend
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika or regular paprika
- 1/2 tsp black pepper

- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a half sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Place 350 g cubed sourdough bread in a food processor and process until fine crumbs are achieved.
- Add 1 tbsp Italian seasoning blend, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp sea salt, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 30 g grated parmesan cheese, and 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil to the crumb mixture. Pulse 10 to 15 times to combine.
- Spread the seasoned breadcrumbs evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the breadcrumbs for 15 minutes, then toss with a spatula and return to the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until fully dry. Keep an eye on the texture depending on whether bread was fresh or stale.
- Allow the breadcrumbs to cool completely. Check for moisture – if any remains, return them to the oven until dry. Once cooled, store in a zip-top bag in the freezer for freshness.
