GOURMET PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Prepare peanut butter sandwich using desired jelly or jam . Make sure it isn't too runny because the sandwich will be heated and jam could leak out.
• Heat a frying pan to melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Tilt pan so butter covers pan evenly. This is key to get a perfectly crispy crust on the bread.
• Butter one side of sandwich. Place buttered-side down in the pan. If possible, place a steak weight or bacon press on sandwich so it cooks evenly. When one side is golden brown, butter other side. Turn sandwich over and place weight back on sandwich. The second side will cook faster because sandwich is already heated.
• Remove sandwich from pan, cut diagonally and serve immediately. Looking for other ways to perk up your beloved PB&J? Here are some other ways to enjoy this common childhood favorite:

PB&J TEA SANDWICHES

• Combine the peanut butter, mascarpone, honey and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Using a rubber spatula, mix everything together until smooth and evenly combined.
• Spread 10 slices of pound cake with 1 tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture. Then spread with 1 teaspoon grape jelly. Complete the sandwiches with a second slice of pound cake. Use a 1 1/2-inch fluted round cutter to cut out little finger sandwiches.

PB&J SANDWICH

Steps:

• Cut into either 2 or 4 triangles each.
• Serve.

FANCY GRILLED PB AND J

Steps:

• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add the bacon to the skillet and cook until not quite crisp, about 2 minutes per side; remove to a plate. Add the onions to the skillet, season with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook until golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any fat. Wipe the skillet and place it back on the heat.
• Begin building the rest of the sandwich: Spread peanut butter on both slices of bread, then spread jam on both slices as well. Place the manchego on one of the slices, then cut the provolone in half and place on top of the manchego. Cut the Swiss cheese in half and place on top of the jam on the other slice. Pile the onions on top of the provolone cheese, followed by the pieces of bacon. Make the sandwich by closing the 2 filled sides of bread together and press slightly to help it all stay together.
• Spread the top of the sandwich with half the mayonnaise. Place the sandwich into the skillet mayonnaise-side down. Spread the rest of the mayonnaise on the top of the sandwich. Fry until the outsides of the sandwich are golden brown and the cheese in the middle is melted, 3 to 4 minutes each side. Cut in half and serve.
