Notes

Tips for success

If you don’t have a food processor 
No worries. You can use a blender for this as well. Just blend up the bread cubes until they’re as fine as you want them to be. In a pinch, you could even use a potato masher, rolling pin, or even a glass jar to turn those cubes into crumbs.
Make ahead
I like to keep gluten-free bread crumbs on hand for any recipe I may need to use them in. This cuts down on the time I’ll need to make future recipes, even though making these crumbs doesn’t take much time at all.
Make sure the bread is dry
The most important part about this process/recipe, is making sure the bread crumbs are completely dry when you pull them out of the oven. This is especially important for storing. The recipes you use them in will need these crumbs to be completely dry as well so nothing turns out soggy.

Storage and Freezing

Storing – Store bread crumbs in an airtight container or freezer bag and place in a cool dry place for up to one month.
Freezing – I love freezing these bread crumbs so I have them for a future recipe. Store them in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to six months.
