Eight Ways To Make PB&J Sandwiches They Love
Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches don’t need to be boring. Here are ways to make something fun with PB&J. We made these in our test kitchen.
Use Cherry Bubblegum Jelly and delight your children. It really does taste like cherry bubblegum.
And kids do love it. Food Network did a show on kids eating PB&J sandwiches made with Cherry Bubblegum Jelly. The kids were delighted to discover the bubblegum flavor.
If you think bubblegum flavored jelly sounds awful, choose something else.
| 1. PB&J Crackers Spread peanut butter and jelly on Ritz-like crackers. |  |
| 2. PB&J French Toast Dip that PB&J in egg wash with regular French toast and slap it on the griddle. Drizzle it with the kids favorite syrup. You can also make syrup by melting a jar of jelly over low heat. |  |
| 3. PB&J Bread Pies Use a Crustable-type press to make PB&J’s, other little pies, and sandwiches. |  |
| 4. PB&J Little Pies Use a pie crust mix and make little Hostess-type pies. Be sure and brush a little water on the edges of the dough to get a good seal. You’ll need a dough press but you can use the dough press for pocket sandwiches, pizza pockets, and little pies. |  |
| 5. PB&J Grilled Spread butter on both sides of the sandwich and slap it on the griddle. Cook it until it is brown and crispy. You can use a Panini press too. |  |
| 6. PB&J Banana Bread Even adults will eat PB&J’s if you use banana bread. For an extra treat, grab a mix and make cinnamon chip banana bread. |  |
| 7. PB&J Zucchini Bread Sneak a vitamin in and make PB&J’s with zucchini bread. Don’t forget the cherry bubblegum jelly. |  |
| 8. PB&J Sushi Make the kids feel like grown-ups and make sushi PB&J’s. Press the bread down slightly, trim the crusts, load it, and slice it. |  |
