Kind of loaf some prefer to make toast? (5,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

brown bread

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'toast?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'kind of loaf some prefer' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'kind' could be 'brown' (I have seen 'Kind of sweetener ' mean 'brown' so perhaps 'kind' could also mean 'brown') and 'brown' is present in the answer.
'loaf' could be 'bread' (I've seen this before) and 'bread' is found within the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'to make' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for brown bread that I've seen before include "Granary foodstuff" , "Food item made with unbleached flour" , "Rye, for one" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
