Oh crumbs – these are great sprinkled on gratins and bakes or used to coat things like tofu, veggie patties, fish or chops and burgers if you’re a meat eater. Plus you can store them in the freezer.
We freeze our leftover crusts or bits and pieces of bread to use for just such a purpose. You could even have regular and/or gluten-free versions to suit different dietary requirements.
200-240g bread or crusts (the equivalent of 5-6 slices depending on type and size of bread)
A big handful of fresh herbs such as parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
(Did you just sing along?)
10-12 chives (optional – only if you have on hand)
Roughly tear bread and place in TM bowl. Add herbs – leaves and soft stalks only – and chives if using. Chop 10 sec/speed 9. Repeat for 5 seconds if you like your crumbs finer.
Store in the fridge or freezer.
