STEP 1: Preheat your pan or oven to medium temperature to achieve an even heat when grilling.
STEP 2: Cut the bread into uniformly thick slices to ensure even cooking and a pleasant texture.
STEP 3: Place the slices of bread on the hot pan or on the oven rack to grill them.
STEP 4: Grill the bread for about 3 to 5 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
STEP 5: Flip the slices halfway through cooking to achieve a nice golden color on both sides.
STEP 6: Once the bread is well grilled, remove it and let it cool slightly before topping it according to your preference.
Making a homemade toaster that rivals those from the best cafés only requires a few simple tips. It all starts with preparing the bread: by placing it on a rack in a preheated oven between 150 and 180 degrees, you will achieve a beautiful golden crust. To prevent your toast from cooling down, prepare your topping in advance and be ready to enjoy it as soon as it comes out of the oven.
Avocado toasts also lend themselves well to this method. The seasoning, with a touch of salt and lemon, will enhance your creation. Finally, no matter what utensil you have at home, a non-stick dish will work very well for grilling your bread on the baking sheet.
