Gluten Free Croutons/Bread Crumbs

I have posted on our other blog (Gunn Family) my crouton recipe but I want it here for reference too. This week I happened to make Gluten Free croutons/bread crumbs to add to black bean burgers I was making for cooking club. I have a friend who is GF and I wanted her to be able to enjoy these burgers as well. - BTW if you are looking for a diverse blog for GF and Vegan eating check out our cooking club blog (Cooking Club), we think it is pretty great!

Ok on to croutons...

4 slices GF bread

1 TBS EVOO

1/2 TBS garlic powder

slice bread into cubes - mix with EVOO and garlic powder - spread out on a baking sheet and bake for 30 mins (ish) at 250 degrees.

if you want to make this into bread crumbs just throw them in your food processor. done!

(this recipe made 1 cup bread crumbs with 4 slices of GF bread)

you can also add any seasoning you want - we love the garlic but cumin would be good if you want them on taco salad - sesame seeds and a little soy sauce might be good with an oriental mandarin orange salad

also when I am not making them GF I just use the ends of stale bread - great way to not waste any of the loaf!
