Wow! I used leftover hamburger rolls from a picnic and seasoned them with garlic powder, smoked sea salt, fresh ground pepper and Penzey's Brady Street Cheese Salad Seasoning. They were delicious! I will absolutly never buy croutons again! -
These are perfect. I made these using only the seasoned salt and veg. oil and they were great. I will add some other spices next time, but you don't need too, they are great as is. Thank youf or sharing this with us, what a $$$$ saver! And a great way to use up leftover buns. -
I didn't have the seasoning salt, but I used other spices and the croutons turned out great. I will never buy croutons again! -
Perfect! I tried another recipe on this site and they were awful. I threw this recipe together & they more than made up for the disaster. I

These are so delicious and a great way to use up old bread. I used white bread instead of burger or hot dog buns. I used about 6 tablespoons of olive oil and garlic powder/ Italian seasoning. Used them over a salad last night and we'll probably eat the rest as a snack. -
I just returned from a trip to South America and found the pantry full of different hot dog buns and hamburger buns... that is what my poor BF survived on while I was gone I suppose! I was craving a salad, but we didn't have any croutons in the house and this was the perfect way to use up all those buns. I only used about 3 Tbs of a really good fruity olive oil for 5 buns. Instead of the seasoning salt, I used a little kosher salt and a combination of garlic and onion powder. I only had to bake about 10 minutes until they were golden and smelling wonderful. Thanks for a great way to use up all the leftover bread in my house from now on!!!

This is easy and so versatile. Instead of seasoned salt, I used salt, pepper, and herbs, and whole wheat bread.

I used this bread to make the croutons #50830. I added some crushed garlic into the olive oil and used garlic salt instead of seasoning salt. Delicious! Thanks

Yet another feature change that has made the website less user friendly. It's sad to watch a fantastic site deteriorate over the years. Some of my recipes are on my blog.
