Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices of white bread
  • Peanut butter
  • Jelly or jam

Directions

  1. Using a spreading knife, spread an even coat of peanut butter on one side of each slice of bread.
  2. When the bread is evenly covered, spread an even coat of jelly atop the peanut butter.
  3. After applying the jelly, put one of the slices on a plate (jelly side up) and place the other slice on top of the first (jelly side down).

Notes

Butter either side of the sandwich with butter or margarine before adding peanut butter and jelly.

Instead of white bread, you can use whole-grain bread, or really any type of bread. Go nuts.

Try adding in some sliced bananas—they go very well with PB&Js.

If using a crab apple jelly, a dash of cinnamon will nicely complement the flavours of the sandwich.

Try adding a bit of honey, or even entirely substituting it for the jelly.

Try adding some sweet or savory cream cheese.

Try toasting the bread before putting the other ingredients on it.
