Preheat oven to 350°F and place one of the oven racks in the middle. Place 2 slices of sourdough bread on a baking sheet.
Melt butter in a small microwave safe bowl. Start at 20 seconds and increase as needed. Microwave times will vary.
Add seasonings to butter and mix well with a pastry brush. Equally spread butter mixture between the 2 slices of bread. Bake for 5-7 minutes in the oven.
After it bakes for 5-7 minutes, switch the oven to BROIL and continue to let the top brown to your liking. Let cook for 2-3 minutes.Be careful to not cook too much longer or the bread will get hard.
Enjoy warm!

Depending on your toaster oven, you may or may not want to turn the toaster to "TOAST" to brown the top of the bread.
Enjoy warm!
