2 Awesome Jaffle Recipes to Satisfy Your Cravings
Have you ever tasted a jaffle? It’s like a pie and a toastie combined, with a glorious, gooey filling nestled inside a crispy pocket. If you’re curious about what deliciousness you can stuff into these delightful creations, look no further! I’ve got two mouthwatering recipes right here for you to try.
1. Upgrading the Cheese Toastie
When it comes to making an epic cheese toastie, there’s a secret to take it to the next level. The combination of flavors and textures will leave you wanting more. Let me show you how to make this mouthwatering treat.
The Ingredients You’ll Need
A single serving (although you’ll probably want two!)
- 1 thick slice of mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon of creamed sweetcorn
- 2 teaspoons of finely sliced spring onions
- A few thin slices from a large, seeded chili (optional)
- 1 heaped tablespoon of grated mature Cheddar cheese
- 2 slices of white bread, each buttered on one side
- Sea salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper
Cooking method
- Start by buttering one slice of bread and placing it on the jaffle iron with the buttered side facing out.
- Add a slice of mozzarella on top of the bread, followed by creamed corn, spring onions, and optional chili.
- Cover it with another slice of buttered bread, placing the buttered side facing out.
- Close the jaffle iron and cook it over coals or a gas flame for 1 to 2 minutes per side. Keep cooking until the sandwich turns golden and toasted.
- Serve the jaffle immediately with a sprinkle of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
For those who love Sriracha: If you’re a fan of Sriracha, you can skip the chili during the cooking process. Instead, once the jaffles are cooked, squeeze some cheffy squiggles of Sriracha sauce over the plated jaffles.
2. The breakfast jaffle
I could try to cook an egg in a jaffle, but it’s a bit hit or miss. You see, the egg white could get absorbed into the bread, making it hard to tell when it’s fully cooked. One trick is to line the bread with butter or slices of cheese to help prevent this. However, even with these precautions, it’s still hard to gauge the cooking time. It’s much easier to pre-poach an egg instead. The round shape of the egg fits nicely in the jaffle and it gives you more control over getting a perfectly cooked white and a runny yolk.
Now, let’s talk about the ingredients you’ll need:
– 1 egg
– 100ml of white wine vinegar
– 2 crispy bacon rashers, finely chopped
– 1 square slice of pre-sliced Cheddar cheese
– 2 slices of white bread, buttered on one side
– Sea salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper
And here’s how you can cook the egg:
1. Take a medium-sized pot with high sides and fill it almost to the brim with water.
2. Bring the water to a boil and then add the white wine vinegar.

I love making jaffles! It’s such a simple and delicious treat that you can enjoy anytime. Here’s how you can make a tasty jaffle yourself:
First, gather your ingredients. You’ll need two slices of bread, some butter, and your choice of filling. Popular fillings include cheese, ham, tomato, and bacon.
Next, butter one side of each bread slice. This will give your jaffle a nice golden crust.
Now, it’s time to assemble your jaffle. Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, on the bottom half of your jaffle iron. Then, add your desired filling. Be creative and combine different ingredients to suit your taste. Personally, I like to use cheese and bacon for a classic jaffle.
Once your filling is in place, cover it with the other slice of bread, buttered side up. This will form a delicious sandwich.
At this point, you’re ready to cook your jaffle. Close the jaffle iron and place it over hot coals or a gas flame. Leave it there for about 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until the bread is nicely toasted and golden.
While your jaffle is cooking, you can prepare a variation called the McMuffin Makeover. Instead of bacon, use a slice of cooked ham. Fry the egg sunny-side up and add it to your jaffle. This will give it a tasty twist!
Now, you’re all set to enjoy your homemade jaffle. It’s a perfect snack for any time of the day. If you’re interested in exploring more jaffle recipes and finding the perfect jaffle iron, check out the April issue of Getaway magazine. It’s filled with jaffle goodness and other exciting content.
