Did you have to look twice to make sure they really are bread crusts? Yes, they are! A couple of weeks ago, I shared my savoury solution to getting through a ridiculously large bag of bread crusts that were stockpiled in my freezer – Parmesan and Thyme Bread Crust Treats. Today I’m sharing the sweet version. “They taste like cinnamon doughnuts, only crunchy and a whole lot healthier and faster to make!” There’s a looong list for why these Cinnamon Sugar Bread Crust Treats are so great. I could write an essay on it – but you aren’t interested in reading an essay! So here are the high points:

  1. Thrifty – use up leftover bread crusts or any other stale bread you have lying around.
  2. Tastes like cinnamon doughnuts, only crunchy!
  3. A whole lot healthier than cinnamon doughnuts.
  4. A whole lot faster to make than cinnamon doughnuts.
  5. They’re ready in 10 minutes.
  6. Little kids probably won’t even know they’re bread crusts.
  7. Big kids might know but they won’t care.
  8. They last for days, stashed in an airtight container. These Cinnamon Sugar Bread Crust Treats are great to pop into school lunch boxes (or work lunch boxes!) in little ziplock bags. Or pour them into a bowl and snack on them like this Lightly Sweet ‘n Salty Popcorn for movie nights in. – Nagi x SaveSave
