While the simplest way of toasting bread is to just put it in a standard toaster, there are other ways of doing it.
If you
- have non-standard size bread, or
- you’re making large quantities of toast, or
- you just don’t have a toaster handy,
then you might like to try a different way to toast bread.
How to toast bread in the oven - 2 different ways
Making toast in the oven is ideal if you are making it for a crowd. You can do it in the main part of the oven or with the broiler. Here are instructions for each.
How to use the broiler for making toast in the oven
Simply move the oven rack to the topmost position and set the oven to low broil. Arrange your toast bread slices on a large cookie tray. I like using bakeware with an edge to it so the toast doesn’t slip off when taking it out.
Put it in oven, leaving the oven door ajar. Times vary depending on your specific oven’s broiler setting, so keep an eye on it. Typically it will take a total of about 5 to 10 minutes. About halfway through the cooking process, turn the bread over so it can toast evenly.
Things progress really fast with the broiler because the food is so close to the element. Therefore, you really need to keep an eye on it once it gets even a little bit golden. It can go from golden to burnt extremely quickly!
How to toast bread in the oven without a broiler
The advantage of toasting your bread in the main part of the oven is that it goes slower so you're less likely to accidentally burn it. The downside is that it takes a little longer than the broiler.
Pre-heat your oven to 425 F. Then place your bread on a cookie sheet or any large flat oven-safe tray in the middle of the oven. Cook in the oven until lightly browned on each side, turning every 5 minutes or so. This typically takes a total of around 15 minutes, but times will vary greatly depending on what type of bread you use, how thick it is, and so on.
How to toast bread in a pan
I like to do this by lightly buttering both sides of the toast bread. Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat on the stove, then put the buttered toast bread in. Watch carefully to avoid burning. It should take less than 5 minutes for one side to be done, then flip over and cook on other side.
Voila – your toast is ready and pre-buttered.
What type of bread to use for toast
While you can use standard pre-cut bread, you’re not limited to that if you’re toasting bread in the oven or pan. This is one of the advantages of toasting bread without a toaster. Consider using a loaf of crusty bread from the bakery section of the supermarket. Cut your own slices, toast the bread in the oven or pan, top with one of our fast easy topping ideas, and you’ve got some gourmet toast ready to go!
