Question

Should I use a gas or electric oven?

Community Answer

Both gas and electric ovens will work. If you use a gas oven, the bread may absorb some of the gas smell.

Question

Can I put some butter on the bread?

Community Answer

If that’s what you prefer, absolutely! Try softening the butter by setting it out on the counter for a few minutes.

Question

How long can you store toast that's been buttered?

Community Answer

You should eat buttered toast immediately because the butter will soften the bread. If you store the bread, it will become soggy.

Question

How do you toast bread in a conventional oven?

Drew Hawkins1

Community Answer

You can definitely make some delicious toast in a conventional oven. Preheat the oven to 350 °F (177 °C) and place the slices of bread on a baking sheet. Heat the bread for 5 minutes, then flip them over and heat them for another 5 minutes. If you like your toast extra crispy, heat each side for 8-10 minutes. Once they're done, take them out, put some butter on them, and enjoy!

Question

How do you make toast without a toaster?

Drew Hawkins1

Community Answer

You can quickly broil them in your oven if you don't have a toaster. Place the slices of bread on the rack below the broiler and set the broiler to the lowest setting. Allow the bread to toast for about a minute or a minute and a half, then flip them over with a pair of tongs and broil them another minute or so. Once they're done, take them out and slab some butter on them.

Question

Do you put butter on toast before or after?

Drew Hawkins1

Community Answer

It's really your preference. Putting butter on the bread before you toast it can potentially cause the butter to drip off into the oven or toaster, but it can also make your toast crispier. It's also easy to toast your bread plain so you can get it to the perfect amount of toasted that you like it, and then add some tasty butter to it. But really, it's up to you!
