Making Toast Without a Toaster

RE: Making Toast Without a Toaster By DM (Guest Post) I made toast this morning. In the past when I just put the toast in the oven at some random temp, it would get all hard and crisp. Almost crouton-like. The secret is...(drum roll please) you have to put it on broil. Most people's ovens, or rather my own the rack is in the middle so it can bake evenly. If the toast is too far away from the broiler, it will merely get hard and take a while to get done. Today, I put my toast in a baking pan and placed it underneath the broiler on the top rack. In less than 2 minutes, it was finished on one side. Then I turned the bread over and it toasted nice and golden. Perfect toast. :) Enjoy...

It would pay to get a toaster if you'll be making it often.

It works best if you butter the bread lightly, but if you're like me & don't use butter or margarine, you can also toast it "dry". ---> The Broiler & Frying Pan also work for Bagels & English Muffins too! ---> When toasting in the oven, don't forget to turn the toast over or the other side will be soft & not toasted. ---> When I was a child my Mom would make Cinnamon toast this way: She's simply butter the bread, sprinkle sugar over it then sprinkle cinnamon right out of the can. Yum! As a child I sure loved those day's she made that for me.... Of course that was in the 60's... & I'm a bit more health conscious than she was back then... but it sure was a tasty treat!

I can remember my grandmother doing this over 40 years ago. She never owned a toaster. I've tried it and it works. Make sure you watch it closely or you'll have a burnt mess.

Once the buttered side is brown, slide out the rack, flip it, and brown the other side if you want. Watch it close - it cooks quick under the broiler!!!

I think our kitchens can get cluttered with too many accessories, don't you?

Best way to toast is using a toaster, quick and easy, browns the bread without making it hard. Or you can fry which is always nice. Try buttering your bread dip the bread in egg and then fry. Result: Nice fried eggy toast, delicious. Posted on 02/03/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Making Toast Without a Toaster By Luvyabye (447) Profile Contact I agree with Michawnpita! I never use a toaster or the oven....I only use a frying pan for probably the last 40 years or so. I love the taste and I use olive oil to toast it. Love it, love it!

I remember when I was a kid and we would go camping, toast was AWESOME! My mom would butter/margarine the bread and cook it on the pan, both sides. Heaven!
