Put the butter in a shallow pan (such as a rimmed cookie sheet or sheet cake pan) that will hold all the bread in a single layer. Put this into the oven to melt the butter. As soon as the butter is melted, add the bread and toss until it is thoroughly coated. Return the pan to the upper third of the oven and bake, tossing the croutons from time to time, until they are delicately browned and crisp, about 1/2 hour. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - NOTES : Though it requires more attention, you can prepare the croutons on top of the stove if you prefer not to heat up the oven. Put the butter in a large saute pan or skillet over medium heat. When it is melted, add the cubed bread and toss until it is evenly coated with the fat. Saute, tossing frequently, until they are brown and crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
