Tips

  • When making multiple batches, make sure to take them out quickly once they get brown, because they can burn quickly.
  • You can use any soft cheese, such as blue cheese or camembert.
  • The maple toast with cheese can be served warm or at room temperature.
  • Use tongs instead of a fork to flip the bread, to avoid burning your fingers.
  • To make the maple toast with cheese ahead of time, put parchment paper between the layers of toast inside the bin to prevent them from sticking together.
