Grilled Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich Recipe

Grilled Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich
Difficulty: Easy | Total Time: | Makes: 1 sandwich

The simple act of griddling a PB&J sandwich with lots of butter changes the whole thing, making the outside crispy and the inside warm and extra gooey.

What to buy: We took the purist route here with peanut butter and strawberry jam, but feel free to swap in your own combination of nut butter and jelly.

This recipe was featured as part of our Most Delicious Sandwiches recipe slideshow.

INGREDIENTS
  • 2 (1/2-inch-thick, 4-by-5-inch-long) slices white sandwich bread
  • 2 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons strawberry jam
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Place the bread slices on a work surface and spread the peanut butter on 1 slice of bread and the jam on the other; set aside.
  2. Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat until foaming. Add the 2 slices of bread filling-side up and cook until the bottoms are golden brown and the filling is warmed through, about 6 minutes.
  3. Using a flat spatula, flip 1 slice of bread onto the other to close the sandwich. Transfer to a plate and serve immediately.

    I love grilling a PB & J in a Toas-Tite grill! Yes, the Toas-Tite grill is back after 55+ years. They're sold at www.toastite.biz, and are just like the original. In less than 3 minutes you have a grilled sandwich that is out of this world! I like to add fresh strawberries or other fruits to my PB&J grilled sandwich.

    Yum!

  • This was and still is my dad's and my favorite sandwich! It really is delicious, and completely different than a regular pb&j. Use plenty of butter, white bread please! Wash down with a cold glass of milk! Comfort food at it's finest!

  • PLEASE CHECK YOUR INFORMATION AGAIN,SOMETHING IS NOT CORRECT

  • yum! Trying that this week - love the addition of a little confectioners sugar. Cut it up into little bite size pieces for dessert...yes, please!

  • We used to have these when I was a kid! Very yummy!

  • I make them using a Toas-Tite sandwich cooker I inherited (check e-bay). Makes a crispy round sandwich sealed around the edge. The perfect sandwich!

  • Mmmmm.... THAT sounds dangerously tastey. Now dip that sucker in some pancake batter and deep fry it, sprinkle some confectioners sugar and that might make it truly dangerous.

  • Elvis would want a banana :)

  • What about the banana?
