💭 Angela's Pro Tips & Recipe Notes
- Keep an eye on the bread as it toasts in the oven, as it can quickly go from golden brown to burnt.
- If you want to add butter or jam to your toast, do so after it has cooled slightly to avoid melting the toppings.
- For extra flavor, you can sprinkle herbs or spices, such as garlic powder or cinnamon, on the bread before toasting it in the oven.
- If you don't have a cooling rack, you can place the toast on a plate or cutting board instead. Just be aware that the bottom of the toast may become slightly soggy if it sits on a flat surface.
