left unbuttered. Season the plates
occasionally to prevent sticking and to make
cleaning easier.
Add interest to your toasted sandwiches by
using a flavoured butter on the outside of
your bread. Store unused butter in the
refrigerator. Each recipe makes
CURRIED BUTTER
BREAD
125g butter, softened
The Breville Futura Snack Maker is designed
for large sized bread. With extra large
cooking plates, even the super sized bread
is easily cut and sealed for the perfect
toasted snack.
1 teaspoon curry powder
1
To season, brush the plates with a little
vegetable oil and rub off the excess with
absorbent paper. Do this after preheating
the unit.
4
/ teaspoon cumin
approximately 1/2 cup butter.
1
4
/ teaspoon tumeric
salt and pepper
GARLIC BUTTER
Most types of bread can be used; white,
wholemeal, kibbled wheat, wholegrain, raisin
loaf and so on. When using raisin bread,
brioche or other sweet breads which contain
high sugar content, remember that they
tend to brown much more quickly.
1. Combine all ingredients mix, until well
combined.
125g butter, softened
2 garlic cloves, crushed
salt and pepper
Do not use spray on non-stick coatings as
this will effect the performance of the non-
stick surface on the cooking plates.
1. Combine all ingredients, mix until well
combined.
For sweet snacks, a light sprinkling of castor
sugar over the outer buttered sides of the
bread will make them extra delicious.
MUSTARD BUTTER
125g butter, softened
FILLINGS
3 tablespoons prepared mustard
For extra flavour use herb or garlic butter for
spreading on bread.
1
2
/ teaspoon black pepper
Try to use canned or pre-cooked fruit as
fresh fruit may give off excessive juices when
heated.
HERB BUTTER
1. Combine all ingredients, mix until well
combined
125g butter, softened
PASTRY
2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs eg
parsley, chives, rosemary, tarragon etc
salt and pepper
Be careful when biting into sandwiches
containing fillings such as cheese and
tomato or jam as they retain heat and can
burn if eaten too quickly.
Frozen pastry will snap in the Futura Snack
Maker. Ready-rolled is the easiest to use,
either in sheets or from a roll. See page 10
for further details.
SPICED BUTTER
1. Combine all ingredients mix, until well
combined.
125g butter, softened
One quarter cup of filling for each sandwich
is sufficient. Do not overfill your sandwiches.
REHEATING

BUTTER OR MARGARINE
immediately, place it on a paper napkin to
absorb condensation. To keep for longer,
place on a rack in an oven-proof dish to
keep warm in a low oven, about 100°C. The
sandwich will keep hot for up to 20 minutes
this way, but will then begin to dry out.
LEMON BUTTER
1. Combine all ingredients, mix until well
combined.
For best results we recommend to butter
the outside of the bread ie place filling
between the unbuttered sides of bread.
