Today I'll go through one of my go-tos for using up bread ends: homemade croutons.
Where to Start
A few days ago we picked up our new stand up freezer. Happy Dance! I finally got a chance to fill and organize it yesterday. While doing so, I came across my full bag of bread ends that I'd been ignoring forgetting about for the last while.
When we made the switch to strictly homemade bread, I found I was always left with the end pieces. We usually cut as little off the ends as possible to maximize the actual loaf for toast, fresh slices, etc. Not wanting to throw these pieces away, I decided to put them to good use.
