TIPS:
Avoid using soft toasting bread.
Sandwich breads are thicker and compact compare to toasting bread, so it holds batter well and stays crispy.

If your bread is too fresh and soft then place them in small toaster oven at 450 degree Fahrenheit for few minutes on medium setting until it turns slightly dehydrated, tough and crispy.Click on the link below to like my "RASOI" Page.
