How to get an even layer of oil on homemade croutons?

I'm trying to make homemade croutons for a Caesar salad. Before toasting them in the oven, I've tried drizzling olive oil them, or throwing the bread cubes in a frying pan with olive oil and herbs. But the end result is that just the corners or little spots of the cubes soak up the oil, and not the rest. Restaurant/bought croutons have oil evenly distributed all over them, which gives them that slightly-fried texture that I'm looking for. Does anybody have any tips on how to do this?How to get an even layer of oil on homemade croutons?
hi there; why don't you try to putting the oil in a spray bottle and spray the croutons before baking them also sprinkle them with some parmesan cheese and garlic powder before baking..This may work for you it's worth a try...Good LuckHow to get an even layer of oil on homemade croutons?
Try putting the oil in a spray bottle and spraying it on or put the oil and croutons in a bad and shake them.
Use a zip lock bag. Best invention ever for coating something.
Have you tried using a spray? I make mine with a garlic spray. Partway through baking I stir them around with a spatula and hose them down again. Always good results.
put them in a plastic container with the oil.... and shake them up ....
Ziplock bag would work, container with a top mith turn the bread to crumbs. I would suggest just tossing it in a largebowl. . .no lid
buy a spray bottle, you can get one at walmart for a buck or so, and put your oil in it. spray away and toss.
I use 100% olive oil spay...you know the spray for your pans before cooking.
Put you bread crumbs into a large container with a lid (an ice cream pail works well). sprinkle with your seasonings, put the lid on and shake. Then heat your oil (about 30 secs in the microwave), then slowly drizzle on your bread. Shake again. Because the oil is hot, it is thinner and will coat your bread better. I do this al the time and it works like a charm! Enjoy, homemade croutons rock!!
