Ingredients
| 1 | loaf rustic bread, about 1½ pounds | |
| ¼ | cup olive oil | |
| 2 | tsp. kosher salt | |
| 2 | tsp. paprika, cumin, or dried herbs (optional) |
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the bread into 1-inch (or smaller) cubes. Place the oil in a large bowl and stir in the herbs or spices, if using. Add the bread cubes and toss by hand to coat with the oil. Sprinkle with salt and continue tossing until well coated.
- Place the bread cubes on a foil- or parchment-lined baking sheet and bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until deep golden-brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.
