Revive Day-Old Bread
Serves:

Cook Time:

Summary
Bread goes stale when it loses moisture. The trick? Add it back! A quick blast of heat rehydrates the inside while crisping up the crust, making your bread soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside—just like fresh-baked.
Ingredients
Directions
1. Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 415°F. This high heat quickly restores texture without over-drying the bread.
2. Lightly Wet the Bread
Hold the loaf under running tap water just long enough to get the surface damp. Don’t soak it—just a quick rinse is enough.
3. Bake Until Crispy
Place the bread directly on the oven rack and bake for a few minutes, just until the crust is dry and crunchy again. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
4. Enjoy!
Once revived, your bread is at its best right away. Slice it up, slather on some butter, or use it for sandwiches!
