Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).

Cut the stale rye bread into small, bite-sized cubes of approximately 1.5 cm (1/2 inch) each.

Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, sea salt, ground black pepper, dried oregano, dried thyme, and paprika.

Step 5

Add the cubed bread to the bowl and toss to evenly coat each piece with the oil and spice mixture.

Step 6

Spread the seasoned bread cubes evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the bread cubes are golden brown and crispy, stirring them halfway through for even cooking.
