Now, place the bread slices or cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure they don't overlap. You want to give each piece of bread its own personal space to dry out, like a bread-social distancing measure!

The drying time will vary depending on the type of bread and your oven's temperature, but as a general rule, it can take anywhere from 1-3 hours. Yes, it's a bit of a bread-wait, but trust me, it's worth it! You can even use this time to catch up on your favorite TV show or bread-related podcast (just kidding, that's not a thing... or is it?)!
