Preheat the oven to 300 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.  

First you’ll need to cut the crusts off each slice of bread.

To make these with a food processor-

Break apart the slices of bread into large chunks and place in the bowl of a food processor.

Pulse the food processor until the bread is chopped into very small pieces. I pulse for about 5-10 seconds and after about 4 times they are the perfect size.

Add the salt, pepper and herbs in before the last pulse to blend them

To make them by hand-

If you don’t have a food processor you can make these by hand. You’ll just need to rip apart the bread into tiny pieces and place it in a medium size bowl.

Add in salt, pepper, and spices if desired and stir until they are sell blended.

Spread the bread crumbs in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 4-5 minutes or until crispy. If you want toasted panko bread crumbs you can stir them and continue baking until they are a golden brown.

Use immediately or allow to cool completely before storing.
