Description
Easy no-oven bread toast made on the stovetop with a crisp outside and soft center. A fast method using basic pantry ingredients.
Ingredients
- 4 slices sandwich bread (about 1/2 inch thick)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium low heat.
- Melt the butter in the skillet and swirl to coat the surface.
- Lightly brush the tops of the bread slices with milk.
- Place the bread milk side up into the skillet.
- Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the bottoms are golden and crisp.
- Sprinkle lightly with salt.
- Flip and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until warmed through and lightly toasted.
- Remove from the skillet and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use medium low heat to prevent the butter from burning before the bread toasts evenly.
- The milk helps the top surface brown slightly while protecting the interior from drying out too much.
