Ingredients

  • 2 slices favorite bread (white, wheat, whole grain, or your preference)
  • 2 T Creamy peanut butter
  • 1-2 T Fruit jelly or jam (grape, strawberry, raspberry, or your favorite)
  • ½ T Butter or margarine (optional for a grilled PB&J)

Instructions

  • Choose your bread: Select two slices of your preferred bread. You can use classic white bread, whole wheat, or any other type you prefer.
  • Spread peanut butter: Take one slice of bread and spread 2 tablespoons of creamy peanut butter evenly over the entire surface of the bread. You can adjust the amount to your taste.
  • Add Jelly or Jam: On the other slice of bread, spread 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite fruit jelly or jam. Spread it evenly to the edges.
  • Combine the Slices: Carefully press the two slices of bread together, peanut butter side to jelly side, to create your PB&J sandwich.
  • (Optional) Grill it (Grilled PB&J):
    If you want to take your PB&J to the next level, you can make it grilled. Heat a small amount of butter or margarine in a pan over medium heat.
    Place your assembled PB&J sandwich in the pan and cook until both sides are golden brown and crispy, usually about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Serve: If you've made a grilled PB&J, allow it to cool for a minute or two before slicing it diagonally. If it's a regular PB&J, you can slice and serve it immediately.
  • Enjoy: Savor your peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage. It's a classic and comforting treat that's loved by all ages.

Notes

Feel free to customize your PB&J sandwich by experimenting with different types of bread, nut butters (like almond or cashew butter), and various fruit spreads. The "world's best" PB&J is all about your personal taste and preferences.
