Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Rye bread (preferably day-old)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried dill
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the rye bread into small cubes, approximately 1/2 inch in size. This should give you about 4-5 cups of bread cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, and ground black pepper. Stir until the spices are evenly distributed in the oil.
Add the bread cubes to the bowl and toss them gently with your hands or a spatula until each piece is well coated with the seasoned oil.
Spread the seasoned bread cubes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the bread cubes are dry and golden brown. Stir them halfway through the baking time to ensure even crisping.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the sukhariki cool completely. They will become crisper as they cool down.
Once cooled, transfer the sukhariki to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to two weeks.
