An all time American lunchbox favorite! This sandwich can be made with any type of sandwich bread but white bread is a favorite in my household. A gourmet sandwich bread sliced thick, elevates this sandwich – something to consider if you are making it for adults.

What You’ll Need to Make Kid’s Peanut Butter & Jelly (PB&J) Sandwich

How to Make A Kid’s Peanut Butter & Jelly (PB&J) Sandwich

  • Place two slices of sliced bread side by side, mirroring each other (so that their profiles match up when put together). On one slice squeeze out one tablespoon of grape or strawberry jelly. On the other slice put one tablespoon of peanut butter. Make sure the peanut butter is at room temperature so that it spreads easily. If it was previously in the refrigerator, leave it out on the kitchen countertop for 10-15 minutes.
  • Spread the jelly evenly over the slice and likewise, spread the peanut butter evenly over the other slice of bread.
  • Trim the edges and slice in half.
  • Serve immediately or pack in lunch box.
