Dishes like stuffing,french toast, stratas, and bread pudding may be thrifty ways to give yesterday's bread a second life,but that doesn't mean that there's always stale bread on hand when a craving hits. Instead of buying a loaf only to wait an additional day to gather your carb fix, try this simple trick for near-instant stale bread:
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Slice the bread into the size specified by the recipe. If your recipe calls for no crusts, or remove them now.
Arrange the slices or cubes into a single layer on a half-sheet pan. execute not season or coat the bread with oil.
Bake for about 15 minutes,or until the bread is toasted and dry, but not browned.
employ the dried-out bread in your recipe.
