Instructions
- On baking sheet, lay out the bread slices.
- Generously butter each slice with about 1 tablespoon of softened butter.
- Sprinkle a little cinnamon over the bread followed by 1/2 teaspoon of sugar per piece.
- Adjust the top oven rack of your oven to about 6 inches below the broiler. Place the baking sheet of prepared bread in a cold oven and turn on the broiler to high.
- Broil about 3 minutes. Timing will vary depending on your own. You know it’s done when the butter is bubbling and edges begin to brown.
Notes/Tips
- Softened butter is key to this working. It needs to be spread out evenly over the bread.
- Don’t preheat the oven. This will cook the toast too quickly, not allowing it to caramelize.
- You can easily scale this recipe up. Great for groups!
- You don’t have to put the toast on a baking sheet. It can go straight on the oven rack if you want.
