Description

A quick and classic Peanut Butter Jelly Bread recipe that’s perfect for a simple, delicious snack or meal. This sandwich combines creamy or crunchy peanut butter with your favorite jelly or jam, served on fresh bread. Optional grilling adds a warm, toasted touch.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 slices of bread (white, whole grain, or sourdough)
  • 2 tablespoons creamy or crunchy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons jelly or jam (flavor of your choice)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (optional, for grilling)


Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients: Gather all ingredients on the counter for easy access to streamline your sandwich-making process.
  2. Spread peanut butter: Evenly spread 2 tablespoons of creamy or crunchy peanut butter on one slice of bread to ensure consistent flavor in every bite.
  3. Spread jelly or jam: On the other slice of bread, spread 2 tablespoons of your chosen jelly or jam evenly for balanced sweetness.
  4. Assemble sandwich: Press the two slices of bread together so the peanut butter and jelly sides face each other, forming a classic sandwich.
  5. Optional grilling: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Grill the sandwich in the skillet for about 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and toasty for an extra warm and crispy texture.

Notes

  • You can use any type of bread you prefer, such as white, whole grain, or sourdough.
  • Choose creamy or crunchy peanut butter depending on your texture preference.
  • Use your favorite flavor of jelly or jam, like grape, strawberry, or raspberry.
  • Grilling is optional but adds a delicious warm crunch to the sandwich.
  • For a healthier option, skip the butter when grilling or use a non-stick pan to avoid added fat.
