I set a timer for three minutes, a regular timer, not in my toaster oven dial. It's hard to be that accurate with it, even when I have someone mark it.

Place the bread on the oven rack. Turn the temperature dial as high as it goes, and set the oven's timer for 3 minutes. Your unit may ding when the timer finishes, and the spring action that makes the ding also shuts the unit off. Make sure the unit is off, see if your toast is ready. If not, give it another minute and check again. The most important thing is to reset your unit to the settings you usually use when you are finished. It isn't too bad to attempt to make your toast when set to bake, and at a low temperature, but if you accidentally try to heat your tortillas on the toast setting at the high temperature at which toast is made, you have a disaster waiting to happen. I have burned up more than one set of taco shells. You can save money by using your toaster oven for toast, but at our house we like our pop up toaster well enough to want both units available in our kitchen.

Toasting unevenly or not enough or outright carbonating the bread. And because Im cheap and dont feel like buying another toaster, I thought Id try out my toaster oven that I already have instead So, my question is, how does one toast bread/eggos in the toaster oven? I know each toaster oven can be different, but in general terms? I would assume you use the toast option on the dial and what? Put it to 400º? Generally how long do you leave the bread in? Five, six or seven minutes? I know I can experiment, but I thought Id ask around to get a basic idea before maybe unnecessarily going through God knows how many slices of bread or waffles.
