Ingredients
Scale
Sandwich 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
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients on the counter for easy access to ensure a smooth preparation process.
- Spread Peanut Butter: Evenly spread 2 tablespoons of peanut butter on one slice of bread, covering the entire surface to the edges.
- Spread Jelly or Jam: On the other slice of bread, spread 2 tablespoons of jelly or jam evenly, choosing any flavor you prefer.
- Assemble Sandwich: Press the two prepared slices together carefully, peanut butter side facing the jelly side, forming a sandwich.
- Optional Grilling: Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Place the sandwich in the skillet and grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the filling is slightly warmed.
Notes
- You can customize the jelly or jam flavor to suit your taste preferences, such as strawberry, grape, or raspberry.
- Using whole grain or sourdough bread adds a nutty flavor and more fiber compared to white bread.
- Grilling the sandwich with butter adds a delicious crispiness and warmth but can be skipped for a classic cold sandwich.
- For a vegan version, use plant-based butter or skip butter during grilling.
- This recipe serves one but can be easily doubled or tripled to serve more people.
