Manual or electric, simply place the toast in the tray, burnt side down. Rollers move it over a vibrating serrated knife-edge at a low angle to remove excess carbon. If both sides were overdone then - predictably - turn it over and send it through, again.

A half-baked design that could be improved by the cunning application of a Toast Planer. [Wrongfellow, Mar 15 2018]
While I respect your idea (+), I happen to like burnt toast ...

Wood planers use a rotary cutting wheel. Surely that
would be more stable? |
|
| |
//rotary cutting wheel// sounds more complicated than a simple automation of the usual method: scraping a serrated dinner knife over the toast over the sink. |
|
| |
Your civilization (?) is advancing ... one tiny step at a time. |
|
| |
A plurality of vibrating serrated knife-edges could be arranged to
move slightly up and down with respect to each other. |
|
| |
If the cutting action occurred precisely at the toast-carbon boundary,
this adjustment would result in a visible modulation of the perceived
darkness of the toast. |
|
| |
This could allow the Toast Planer to offer all the same functionality as
the Toast Planner. [link] |

What's needed, shirley, is a full toastal CNC. It could be
used to plane, but could also create grooves to hold
additional butter. |
|
| |
I'm sure that Computerised Numerical Toasting is almost certaintly
baked already, probably. |
|
| |
Can the CNC shred the toast, spray melted butter, and then reassemble it resulting in a precise percentage of butter in any range from "dry as a matron's sheets" to "it's a stick of butter"? |
