sandwich toaster

I got some Toastie bags from Lakeland. Make a sandwich pop into bag and put it in the toaster.

Do you have an air fryer? You may get more use out of that than another sandwich toaster. I had one many years ago, had problems cleaning it so quickly got rid of it. I have a feeling it may be a repeat performance if you buy another. Also how often do you have a craving for such a sandwich?

They are reusable.

Mine was a nightmare to clean too. I gave it away and make them in the air fryer now (with a metal grid on top of the sandwich to keep it together). The GC's favourite ones are cheese and apple! They take five minutes to cook.

Got mine from B&M - what a revelation?!! So easy to make a butty and toast in the toaster. Reusable bags - good for 40-50 uses.
Way cheaper than buying a sandwich maker!!

The toaster bags are excellent easy to use and washable.

I loved my sandwich toaster. I could easily eat them daily. Got lost in one of my moves and I won't buy another because... all of those carbs!

Toasties bags

I always used to have a toasted sandwich maker but hated the cleanup

Toasties bags are life changing

I have a Dualit toaster and you can get special metal sandwich holders to make toasted sandwiches with. It’s better than the Lakeland bags but the bags are good - you get 2 in a pack and they are good for about 500 toastings.

toastie bags, what a great idea, thank you
can you put them under the grill?

I don’t think so. In the toaster both sides get done at the same time heating and melting, if cheese, the contents.

I use a George Foreman health grill. Make the sandwich, don’t butter the outsides, and pop in the grill. Cooks quickly and is easy to clean.
Obviously you can use it for healthy grilling too 😂😂

We have a sandwich press. No nooks and crannies.

Haven`t used mine for ages. Never had any problems cleaning it, but the main trouble was closing it after putting the sandwich inside it, had to press the lid down till it was done.

I've never seen those toastie bags but I am keen to try them to make my croque monsieurs.
I've got a Dualit and a metal cage thingy 24Avalon and I use it a lot for hot cross buns, but you can't use it for say cheese can you because it would all ooze out into the toaster?

Now you've done it I'm in in bed and I want cheese toastie!

I’ve had a sandwich toaster for many years. It is very easy to clean, non stick and you just wipe it with a damp cloth. They are cheap, any big store would sell them. I put a bit of butter on the outsides of the bread as well as inside because I like them well toasted.

I use this a lot, mainly the toasted sandwich and panini plates. Plates are detachable and easy to clean. Fastening allows for deep fillings.

I’ve got a Breville Sandwich & Panini Press, it’s stainless steel outside, and non stick, flat adjustable plates inside, it adjusts to thickness. I love it, it’s used frequently as you can toast single slices, toasties, waffles, panini etc, and it just takes a wipe to clean after. I think it was about £30 from memory.

Mines a Breville toaster and the metal plates come out so it’s easy to keep clean. We have one most days for lunch. Cheese and tomato is my favourite 😋🤗 filling.

I don't understand how you can get a sandwich bag in a toaster. My toaster holds two single slices of bread but a sandwich would never fit.

Chestnut, we have a 2 slice Dualit toaster, and I am sure that a sandwich, in a bag, would never fit in.
I have now got a Crimpit, not tried yet, but DD has one and loves it. She can take it to work and have a hot sandwich lunch.

I got a Crimpit and one for my Daughter, there was an offer on
It is in the bottom drawer ! If I filled it with even one slice of cheese it didn’t fit in my toaster
I’m back to using my sandwich toaster , I like my sandwiches nice and full

Chestnut and Auntieflo thank you. Silly me, above, I've never had much spacial awareness. So that's my idea of toasting my croque monsieur in a bag in my Dualit gone unless 25Avalon can help me out?
