Ingredients

  • 3 cups stale or fresh bread, (roughly chopped)
  • 1 tbsp za'atar
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  • To start, heat your oven to 300°. Then, add the chopped bread to a food processor and pulse until ground to your preferred consistency. (finer texture for battering, coarser texture for use as a topping).
  • Lay the breadcrumbs out onto a large sheet pan and sprinkle with the za'atar, sea salt, and olive oil. Toss until well combined.
  • Then, add to the oven and toast for 5-10 minutes. Check often, stale bread will toast faster than fresh bread. They should be very crunchy.
