"Store in the fridge or freezer in a ziploc bag, the recipe may be reduced to one loaf of bread if desired since I use these on a regular basis I most always make two loaves, plan ahead you will need to dry the breadcrumbs which may take 2-3 days depending on how dry you want the crumbs to be. Amounts listed will yield about 3 cups (six 1/2 cup servings)"

Original is 6 servings

Step 1

Slice the loaves of bread into quarters and leave out on the counter for 1-2 days (if you prefer dry breadcrumbs, oven-dry the bread slices then process and season).

Cut or break the bread in small cubes and place in a processor (you might have to do this in two batches) process until fine.

Step 3

Place the breadcrumbs into a bowl and add in all the remaining ingredients; mix gently.

Step 4

Pour the crumbs into a ziploc freezer bag and store in the freezer to use as needed.

I made a full batch of these bread crumbs to have on hand, and used some to make Kittencal's Oven Baked Parmesan Chicken. https://www.recipezazz.com/recipe/oven-baked-parmesan-chicken-great-for-beginner-cooks-3297 The bread crumbs added so much flavor to the chicken. I am thinking it will be good on pork chops as well. I look forward to experimenting with them!

I made queenbea's italian seasoning and then wondered if there was a recipe for italian breadcrumbs. Low and behold I found this so made up a batch last night to have on hand. I made Italian breaded pork chops for dinner and they were delicious. Thanks for sharing.

I use Italian bread crumbs all the time and this is my go to recipe! It takes about 5 minutes to whip together and they are ready in no time. These are really flavorful crumbs and better than store bought any day of the week!
