Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Place the bread cubes in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle evenly with the olive oil.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, fine sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper over the bread.
Toss everything together gently with your hands or a large spatula until each bread cube is evenly coated with oil and seasonings.
Spread the seasoned bread cubes in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure they bake evenly and become crispy.
Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the sheet from the oven and toss the croutons with a spatula to promote even browning.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the croutons are golden brown, crisp, and fragrant.
Let the croutons cool completely on the baking sheet. They will continue to crisp up as they cool. Once cooled, serve immediately or store for later use.
