Bread

Butter

Method

Toasting

  1. 1

    Toast the Bread

    Place the slices of bread into a toaster or on a grill. If using a toaster, set it to your preferred level of browning. If grilling, place the bread on a grill over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Check for Toasting

    Toast the bread until it is golden brown and crispy, typically about 2-4 minutes in a toaster or approximately 5 minutes on a grill, flipping halfway through.

Butter Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Butter

    While the bread is toasting, take 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter out of the refrigerator and allow it to soften at room temperature for about 5 minutes. This will make it easier to spread.

Serving

  1. 4

    Spread the Butter

    Once the bread is toasted and hot, use a butter knife to spread the softened butter evenly over the top of each slice of toast.

  2. 5

    Serve

    Serve the toast warm, optionally adding toppings like jam or honey if desired.
