Peanut butter and jelly get a toasty upgrade when pressed in a hot buttered skillet until golden and crisp. The warmth softens the peanut butter and melts the jelly slightly, creating a cozy sandwich that works for breakfast, lunch, or a quick snack.

Ingredients

  • 2 slices white or whole wheat bread
  • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon grape or strawberry jelly
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened

Method

  1. Spread peanut butter evenly on one slice of bread and jelly on the other slice.

  2. Press the two slices together, peanut butter and jelly sides facing in, to form a sandwich.

  3. Spread softened butter evenly over both outer sides of the sandwich.

  4. Place the sandwich in a 9-inch skillet over medium-low heat and grill until golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.

  5. Flip the sandwich and grill the second side until golden brown and the filling is warmed through, about 3 minutes.

  6. Transfer to a cutting board, let rest for 1 minute, then slice in half and serve warm.
