White sandwich (toast) bread is a pan wheat bread with a soft dense fine-crumbed interior and a thin crust, cut into even slices, with a neutral-sweetish taste. It is browned in a toaster, made into sandwiches, hot sandwiches, croutons, breadcrumbs, fried bread, French toast and strata bakes.

That same grandma's pie, but in a version for the laziest. Grated apple mixed with bread crumb really does resemble warm airy dough, and if you make such a sandwich on buttery, spongy brioche instead of regular sandwich bread , you can achieve maximum similarity with a real charlotte. An excellent end to some seemingly non-festive dinner, if you suddenly want to surprise your family.
