Ingredients
Directions
- Combine garlic and oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until cloves are a light gold color, about 15 minutes. Pour oil through a fine sieve, squeeze all juice from cloves, and then discard the solids. Set garlic oil aside.
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet. Arrange bread cubes in a single layer on baking sheet. Bake, turning bread cubes periodically, until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
- In a large, non-stick skillet, melt 1/3 cup butter with 1/3 cup garlic oil over medium heat. Coat bread cubes in mixture. Bake toasted bread cubes in batches until light to medium golden brown, turning frequently. Add more butter/garlic oil as needed.
- Turn out into basket lined with paper towels, and drain for about 20 minutes. Use as desired and enjoy!
