These homemade croutons are simple to make and easily customizable!

Homemade croutons are so easy to make and can be easily customizable not only in taste but also in shape! I decided to try my hand at making fun shapes for our croutons and everyone loved these heart shaped flavor bombs for their salads! You can cube the bread for traditional bread crumbs or use mini cutters for cute little shapes.

This sourdough brown bread is a cozy twist on that classic Cheesecake Factory favorite, soft, hearty, and lightly sweet with oats sprinkled on top. It’s the kind of bread that fills your kitchen with comfort and makes any meal feel a little extra special.

Comment RECIPE for all the details sent straight to your inbox. 

Ingredients
1 cup water
1/2 cup sourdough starter
¼ cup honey
2 tablespoon molasses
2 cup white bread flour
1 ¾ cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
oats for dusting top
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix water, honey, molasses, melted butter and sourdough starter.
Add in bread flour, whole wheat flour, salt, and cocoa powder. Mix until a smooth dough has formed.
Transfer dough to a clean bowl, cover it and let it rise until it doubles. It will take from 8 to 10 hours. Remember to leave in a warm spot.
After the first rise divide dough into 4 pieces. Using your hands or a rolling pin, open each piece in a rectangle. Roll into a cylinder and pinch to close. Roll the tops of the loaves in oats.
Place in a lined baking sheet or in a mini loaf pan, cover and let rise for 2 more hours or until loaves almost double, and look puffy and light.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Uncover loaves and bake them for 30 to 35 minutes.
Let loaves cool for 15 minutes before slicing.
