Tips
Getting the perfect grilled Fluffernutter on the Arteflame is all about controlling heat and movement. The flat cooktop offers even temperature zones, so you can shift the sandwich closer or farther from the center as needed. Light buttering helps create a crisp exterior while preventing sticking. Don’t rush the process—slower toasting allows the peanut butter and marshmallow fluff to melt smoothly without spilling. For cleaner edges, keep the filling slightly away from the crust.
- Use a metal spatula for easy flipping.
- Press lightly for even browning.
