If you’ve pulled out stale bread, that’s actually a good thing—it’s perfect for reuse 👍
Here are easy, useful things you can do with it (no waste):
Quick food ideas
-
Croutons 🥗
Cut into cubes, toss with a little oil and salt, bake or pan-toast until crisp. -
Breadcrumbs
Dry it fully, crush or blend → use for coating, meatballs, or topping pasta. -
French toast 🍞
Stale bread absorbs the egg mixture better than fresh bread. -
Bread pudding
Tear into pieces, add milk, egg, a bit of sugar—bake. -
Garlic toast
Toast it, rub with garlic, add butter or oil.
Not food?
-
Revive it: Sprinkle lightly with water and heat in the oven for a few minutes.
-
Compost (if it’s plain and mold-free)
Important check ⚠️
If the bread has any mold (green, black, white fuzz), don’t use it—throw it out.
