- Add bread cubes to a large bowl and toss with olive oil, salt and pepper and place on the same baking sheet and If You Care Parchment Paper. Bake for about 10 minutes or until bread is crisp. Place in a bowl and allow to cool.
- Place hazelnuts on the Parchment and bake for 5-10 minutes until browned slightly, then allow to cool in a small bowl.
