What is the cook temperature range for Texas Toast?

• A. 350-400°F
• B. 400-450°F
• C. 450-500°F
• D. 300-350°F

Answer: (B)

Toasting Texas Toast works best when you apply hot, direct heat so the surface browns and becomes crisp while the inside stays warm. A hotter range lets the surface sugars and butter caramelize quickly, giving a golden, crisp exterior in a short time. If you use a lower temperature, the bread toasts slowly and may stay pale or soggy from the butter without achieving a true crisp. If you push the heat too high, the outside can burn before the interior is fully warmed, leading to uneven color and a bitter note from burnt butter. The hotter range hits the sweet spot, delivering even browning and a crisp crust with a warm, soft center.
