Reheating Toast in the Toaster
If you have toasted bread sitting around, putting it back in the toaster is the key to rejuvenating it and get it warmed up.
The key is that you do not want to keep it in the toaster too long, just long enough to give it some heat, but not long enough to have it dry out.
Steps:
- Take the cold toast and place in the toaster
- Set it on the lightest setting and start the toasting.
- After a couple of seconds, the bread should pop out and ready for consumption.
Reheating Toast in the Oven/Toaster Oven
If for whatever reason you do not have a toaster on hand, you can warm up your toast in the oven.
This is a longer process and will take a couple of minutes for it to get hot and crispy.
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- Place the toast in a pan and place in the oven
- Allow the toast to bake for 5-10 minutes (depends on how dark you toasted it in the first place)
- You should check occasionally to ensure that it isn’t getting too crispy and just warming up.
- Once finished, you can take out and enjoy.
- After a couple of seconds, the bread should pop out and ready for consumption.
What About Using the Microwave?
Microwaving toast can be a bit tricky, as there is the possibility of it coming out soggy.
Microwaves and breads are not a good combination and extra care has to be taken when you are reheating.
Steps:
- Place your toast in a microwave safe container and wrap with a damp paper towel.
- Place the toast in the microwave
- Heat for 30 seconds on the low/medium setting.
Wrapping It Up
While it easier and recommended to toast a new slice of bread, if you are adamant at reheating it, then there are options available.
The oven/toaster oven, toaster and microwave are all viable options. While some have an advantage over others, these are really all you need to get your bread toasty and warm.
