Ingredients
1
unsliced loaf of white bread
choose one as square as possible
¼
cup
melted butter
1
tsp
celery seed
plus extra for sprinkling
Instructions
Cut crust off all sides of bread including the bottom. Slice lengthwise through the middle, then into sections ending with about 10 cubes.
Melt butter. Stir in celery seeds.
Brush liberally over all surfaces of each cube. Sprinkle more celery seed over any areas that have little seeds.
Put bread cubes back into plastic bag and seal up tightly. Refrigerate over night or at least all day for best results.
Arrange cubes in a bundle in a baking dish. Allow them to fall open to expose as much area as possible.
Bake on the centre rack of a preheated oven at 400° for about 10 minutes or until bread is lightly toasted.
