Kittencal's Seasoned Dry Italian Breadcrumbs

Recipe #203857 | 10 min | 10 min prep | add private note

These are so much better than any store-bought bread crumbs, use in any recipe calling for seasoned breadcrumbs, they make a wonderful breading for baked chicken and fish --- store in the fridge or freezer and use when needed --- the recipe can be reduced to one loaf of bread if desired, since I use these on a regular basis I most always make two loaves.

3 cups (approx) (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Slice the loaves of bread into quarters and leave out on the counter for 1-2 days (or you may also oven-dry the bread slices).
  2. 2
    Cut or break the bread in small cubes and place in a processor (you might have to do this in two batches) process until fine.
  3. 3
    Place the breadcrumbs into a bowl and add in all the remaining ingredients; mix gently.
  4. 4
    Pour the crumbs into a ziploc freezer bag and store in the freezer to use as needed.

These breadcrumbs are unique because they are made of bread. Honestly, I don't even understand why.

    What a great way to keep from wasting good bread! I used a whole round loaf of sourdough and it was perfect with the spices. Much better than purchased breadcrumbs. Another winner!

    Alleluia ~~ an easy way to always have breadcrumbs on hand! Plus, I used whole wheat bread to up the nutrient factor. I used these breadcrumbs in Kittencal's Italian Melt-In-Your-Mouth Meatballs and froze the rest. Thank you for posting!

    Oops, I didn't realize I had not rated this recipe yet. I use only this recipe for breadcrumbs now. I always save the left over bread and just make it with that. I store it in my fridge, and have fresh breadcrumbs whenever I need them for another recipe. Great money saver, as I would have just thrown out the bread ends anyway. thanks!!
