The problem is that store bought croutons have normalized being dry, hard bullets. It's not like that when they're made fresh. They're beautiful little pieces of buttered texture in your salad.

Fresh croutons are one of the single best advantages of an air fryer

Part-baked baguette cut into chunks, spray with olive oil, six minutes, shake after three. Nothing else needed

I was thinking of getting an air fryer, but I was missing additional applications. I think you might have convinced me.

Get a toaster oven air fryer, not as good as being an air fryer but we make dinner in that thing almost daily

It also makes amazing tofu. 20 min at 400 gives it an actual texture. No pressing or freezing required.

Air fryer is also great to make a quick garlic bread.

Garlic bread tastes really great,

Eat it from a bowl or off of your plate.

A crouton is actually supposed to be that dry. It's literaly in the name. A crouton is a piece of bread that's so dry and old you can't eat it, so you break it into pieces and put it in your other food

Get a spray bottle or just coat your hand in water. Get a plate of croutons lightly moist. Then, just microwave it for about 30 seconds.

There you doctored the croutons from "being a pain" to something regular normies can enjoy
