The Australian midfielder took his tally to seven goals in 13 games in all competitions and, with Phil Neville also on target, it was just the result manager David Moyes was looking for after Manchester United ended their 13-match unbeaten run on Sunday.
However, it took them a while to get going with Cahill's goal and the opener from Neville coming in the second half.
Bolton were looking to kick on after moving up the table under manager Gary Megson, but they were guilty of gifting Everton both goals and have yet to win away on the road in the league this season.
Bolton carved out the first chance of the match after 15 minutes when full back Ricardo Gardner tried his luck from distance. However the Jamaica international's effort went high over Tim Howard's bar.
Everton suddenly sprung into life in the 20th minute and Mikel Arteta's effort took a deflection to safety after he had been set up by Joleon Lescott.
Yakubu did find the net a minute before half time but his effort was ruled out as Cahill was offside.
Jaaskelainen was left red-faced in the 52nd minute when Everton opened the scoring - he came racing off his line to prevent Neville's delivery from the right reaching Cahill and clambered on the back of the midfielder, but he took his eye off the ball and Neville's cross ended up in the net.
Everton extended their lead in the 70th minute when referee Rob Styles played the advantage rule after Gavin McCann hand bundled over Gravesen.
With Bolton static, Lescott raced to the byline and pulled it back to Cahill, who rifled a shot home.
