- Ziploc Bags
Ingredients
- 10 to 12 slices bread
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Break the bread into chunks and place in a food processor or blender.
- Process until you have reached your preferred level of texture for the crumbs.
- Transfer into a baking tray lined with a baking sheet.
- Spread the crumbs evenly.
- Place the baking tray in the lower part of the oven until the breadcrumbs are completely dry.
- Shake or mix the crumbs with a spatula and place it back in the oven to dry the whole tray evenly.

Notes
- Cook's Tip #1: You can skip placing the crumbs in the oven if they are already dry -- say, the bread is older than two days. Leave them out for a longer period and then store them properly.
- Cook's Tip #2: Add your favorite seasoning to these homemade breadcrumbs, depending on what your dish calls for. I typically add a variety of dried herbs, plus salt and pepper.
- Cook's Tip #3: If you decide to store them in the freezer, write the date on the bag to help you track how old it is.
