Jaffle Recipes

Jaffles are a much-loved Aussie classic — crisp on the outside, sealed around the edges and filled with warm, melty goodness. They’re quick to make, endlessly adaptable and ideal for everything from fast lunches to easy weeknight dinners.
A jaffle is cooked in a jaffle iron that seals the edges of the bread and divides the sandwich into pockets, keeping fillings contained. A toastie, by comparison, is usually pressed flat in a sandwich press or pan, with open edges and flatter layers. That sealed edge is what gives jaffles their signature crunch and helps prevent fillings from spilling out during cooking.

This collection brings together jaffle recipes that make the most of that classic sealed shape. You’ll find familiar favourites, hearty combinations and lighter ideas that are perfect for using up leftovers. Simple ingredients and straightforward cooking keep these recipes satisfying and fuss-free.
