When I was a kid, we would have jaffles for dinner often and I remember enjoying it.
We had one of those black single jaffle makers that you put over the flame, then turned it over half way through. I actually inherited that very jaffle maker recently because Mum and Dad bought themselves an electric Jaffle Maker. I have fond memories of trying loads of different fillings, and trying to avoid biting into a hot jaffle without getting third degree burns on my chin when the filling would burst out!
With that said, I thought I’d list all the fillings you can add in jaffles. The possibilities are endless!
