⁄3 cup
1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Bake slices of bread in a 
single layer for about 20 minutes or until bread is 
completely dried out. (Since you are only baking four 
slices of bread, this is the perfect task for your toaster 
oven, saving energy and money.)
2. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the 
food processor. Directly into the work bowl, break the 
bread into pieces and pulse 6 to 8 times, then 
process on High until desired texture is achieved, 
about 30 to 60 seconds. 
Note: Breadcrumbs can also be processed from day-old 
bread. Simply break into uniform pieces and follow 
above instruction until fi nely chopped. 
Tip: For seasoned breadcrumbs, add ¼ teaspoon each 
dried oregano, dried basil, garlic powder and ground 
onion fl akes to toasted bread and process as above.
