For a lot of us, the peanut butter and jelly sandwich is a childhood favorite. As an adult, I still find myself craving a good peanut butter and jelly sandwich from time to time.
When I was younger, something I loved to do was grill my peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
By grilled, I simply mean preparing the sandwich as if it were a grilled cheese… only using peanut butter and jelly.
I loved being in the kitchen as a child, and I was always thinking of ways I could make my favorite foods taste better.
If you haven’t had a grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwich, you’re missing out and should try one right now.
They are warm, decadent, and absolutely delicious. If you want to take it to another level, use Biscoff Cookie Butter instead of peanut butter. You’re welcome.
