Brown bread (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toast

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'brown' is the first definition.
(to brown something is to toast it)

'bread' is the second definition.
(toast is a kind of bread)

(Other definitions for toast that I've seen before include "Tribute (plus a clinking of glasses?)" , "Health drunk" , "meal component" , "It's found under marmalade and butter" , "making this pledge?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, the Evening Standard and the LA Times.
