Do you eat your crusts?

You know, at the ends of the loaf of bread? None of us here like them & it seems such a waste to throw them out every time, so does anyone have suggestions on what I can do to make them more appetising?

i use my ends to make fresh breadcrumb then freeze them

I love them! I just eat them like normal bread, so I don't do anything else with them really. Maybe you could cut them into fingers and put them in the oven to dry out to make rusks for Juliette? or just freeze them and take to the park and feed the ducks?

I'm always the one that eats them cos DH won't! I like them with cheese melted on top!

Um you could make bread and butter pudding, have to collect a few though lol!

Turn them into garlic bread? Collect them till you have a "loaf" then slather with butter and some crushed garlic and sprinkle some parsley - bake for 5 mins and yummo!!

Hi Sarah,

No help here sorry. I just find it cute that you want to use your crusts :D.

We throw ours out to the Magpies.

I like the breadcrumbs idea though.

I don't eat the crust... I am so fussy that I don't even eat the next piece of bread after the crust! Thankfully my DH loves the crusts so that makes up for it.
Otherwise, I do the same as AJP and make fresh breadcrumbs out of them.

Breadcrumbs, DUH!!! Never even thought of that!

I save them up and then make bread and butter pudding !!!

breadcrumbs are the best idea... we dont eat crusts here either

or we freeze them and when we have a few, we go down and feed the ducks!

i often throw some herbs in the processor when processing them or some parmasen, them freeze in portions

I've done croutons for soups etc with them as well - but usually they feed the birds or become breadcrumbs

i dont eat the crust nor the slice after it lol feeding them to the birds is what we do but Dh usually has em

I?m with you Sangie,thick slices of cheese on toast is the best,you let it melt all over the sides,the kids and i just love.

I eat mine toasted with heaps of butter and Honey... YUMMO!!!!

Yeah i eat them too but you can make croutons out of them.

i like having the crust pieces as toast with peanut butter... im not really a toast eater, but the crust pieces are yummy toasted!

DH, DD and I eat them too. It's funny because I always thought that not eating the crusts was a child's thing and they grow out of it. But I guess it carries on to adulthood LOL.

My first thought was breadcrumbs aswell :)
