]]>Rolled Oats
If you’re looking for nutrition, then rolled oats are a perfect alternative. Richer in fiber than regular bread crumbs, the one area where oats lack is flavor, however, this can be fixed by tossing them in a blender with some of your favorite seasoning.
Corn Flakes
Given its texture and moderate flavoring, cornflakes are an ideal breadcrumb substitute. To add some extra flavor, mix them with butter or oil before blending into a fine powder.
Pretzels
Much like potato chips, pretzels bring a salty flavor to any dish, meaning that you won’t need to coat them in any additional seasoning. Still, they may be best used as a coating instead of the main ingredient given their dominant taste.

11 years after launching her food blog on a whim, Stafford published her debut cookbook Bread Toast Crumbs, dedicated to bread. But as the title might suggest, the book isn’t just about baking bread; it’s also about what to do with the slices and heels and nubs from those many loaves you’ll bake.
“When I get down to a half a loaf of bread or a quarter of a loaf of bread and I am already making more, I usually stash all those heels in the freezer, for when I am ready to make crumbs,” says Stafford. “When I am ready to make crumbs, I will thaw them, puree them in the food processor, spread them on a sheet pan, and then I like to dry them in the oven slowly.”
According to Stafford, other than a passion for bread she doesn’t follow any specific diet, believing in the power of balance and moderation. Her blog offers a variety of recipes, mostly simple to follow, and always seasonal.

]]>Let’s find out how to make a batch of deliciously herbed breadcrumbs!
Ingredients
- 1 loaf of white bread
- 2 teaspoons rosemary
- 2 teaspoons parsley
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
(@unacucinavintage)Preheat your oven to 250 degrees F.
Start off by taking the loaf of white bread and tearing it into small pieces. These should be a little bigger than what you imagine as a bread crumb because they will shrink in the oven. Place the crumbs into a large bowl.
When you have finished tearing the bread, go ahead and add all of the herbs to the bowl and mix well with your hands, ensuring that the herbs are “sticking to the bread.”
Place the bread pieces onto an oven dish lined with oven paper and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the bread is dried out.
Crumble further into a bowl, and voila! Your very own bread crumbs are finished.
