Croutons from a loaf of bread - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! Whole wheat bread works well, though it may have a denser texture and slightly nuttier flavor. Adjust soaking time as needed since it absorbs liquid differently.
Maple syrup, agave nectar, or a pinch of sugar are great alternatives. For a savory twist, omit sweeteners entirely and add herbs like thyme or garlic powder.
Store cooled croutons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze for up to 1 month and reheat in a toaster or oven.
Absolutely! Use plant-based milk (like almond or oat), replace eggs with a flaxseed or chia egg, and swap butter for coconut oil or vegan butter.
Toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1–2 minutes or bake at 350°F (175°C) for 3–5 minutes. Avoid microwaving, as they’ll turn soggy.
Yes! Arrange soaked bread on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 375°F (190°C) for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.
Try fresh berries, yogurt, whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce. For savory versions, top with avocado or smoked salmon.
Reduce ingredients proportionally (e.g., 1 slice of bread, 1 egg, 2 tbsp milk). Mix excess egg wash can be scrambled or used for French toast!
