Notes

  • Day old bread works the best, but using day of bread works too
  • If you want longer slices, slice them at an angel
  • Use coarse salt instead of regular table salt
  • For even toasting flip the bread half way through cooking
  • Keep an eye on it when it gets close to the end cook time to not over cook
  • Store in an air tight container for up to 3 days
