Classic Buttered Toast

Golden, crisp-edged toast with a shattering crunch and a rich, melting butter slick across every corner.

3 min2 portions

Ingrédients

  • 2 sandwich bread · white, wheat, or sourdough
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter · softened to room temperature
  • flaky sea salt · optional, for finishing

Préparation

  1. 1

    Set the toaster

    Place both slices of bread into the toaster slots. Set the darkness dial to medium-high — around 3.5 to 4 out of 6 — for an even golden-brown color without burning.

  2. 2

    Toast the bread

    Push down the toaster lever and let the bread toast fully until the machine pops it up. Both slices should be deep golden with lightly crisped edges.

  3. 3

    Butter immediately

    Pull the toast out the moment it pops. While the bread is still steaming hot, spread a generous tablespoon of softened butter across the entire surface of each slice, right out to the corners, so it melts in fully.

  4. 4

    Finish and serve

    If you like, add a small pinch of flaky sea salt over the buttered surface. Serve immediately while hot and crisp.
