Advice

Toast is one of the simplest and most delicious snacks you can make. When making toast, always use a toaster set to a medium setting and make sure to keep an eye on it. Toast that is too dark can be bitter and may even be burnt. If you prefer, you can spread butter or margarine on the toast while it is still hot to help it melt and give it more flavour. You can also add jam, honey, nut butter, or whatever else you like to make it even tastier. Have fun experimenting with different toppings to find the perfect combination for your toast!
