PASTRY TOASTIES

A light crisp toastie can be produced using pastry in your Breville Original™. After much experimentation we have found that sheets of puff pastry prove to be easy to use and give a great result.

Lay ½ the pastry sheet over the base cooking plates allowing the remaining pastry to lay over the handles. Fill with required filling then fold remaining pastry over the filling, close the lid and cook for 3 minutes or until golden brown. When the pastry is cooked, remove and trim the uncooked edges.

All recipes make 2 toasties, except where stated. Simply double or triple recipe depending on quantity of toasties required.
