Making toast is a chemical reaction because you can't change it back into untoasted bread.
The drying of the bread is physical but the actual caramelization or darkening of the outer bread layer is a chemical change. The outer edges of the bread are beginning to char. Generally, a color change is an indicator of a chemical change.

Toast browning is a chemical change because it involves the Maillard reaction, where the sugars and amino acids in the bread react to produce new compounds that give the toast its characteristic brown color and flavor. This reaction cannot be reversed by simply changing the physical state of the toast.
Burning toast in the toaster is a chemical change. This is because the heat from the toaster causes the sugars in the bread to undergo a chemical reaction known as caramelization, leading to the browning and flavor changes of the toast.
It is a physical property. A chemical property would involve the butter reacting to the toast, but the butter is actually reacting to the heat from the toast. The butter would melt against any surface hot enough, where as butter would not melt on cold toast. Hence, the reaction to heat makes it a physical property. (A relatively easy way to remember is that physical properties deal with the transfer of physical energy or force such as heat, inertia, etc. Chemical properties occur when two material substances trade molecules or electrons.)
Physical changes alter a substance's appearance, such as size or state, without changing its chemical composition. Chemical changes, on the other hand, involve the formation of new substances with different chemical properties.

Toasting bread represents a chemical change.
Chemical, because the disaccharide in toast when heated become hard thus giving you toast
It is kind of both....The chemical: The toast loses its water molecules and so loses most of its H2O.The Physical: The toast becomes hard and crunchy from soft and airy.Added:The toast burning is a total physical change, not chemical. Water loss from the toast is not a chemical change as species have not changed partners ( atoms have not rearranged into new species ) and H2O remains the molecule H2O, water.

Burning toast would be a chemical change. The bread would be changed into carbon and the reaction can not be reversed.
