1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

3 Tbsp grape or strawberry jelly

4 large eggs

1/4 cup milk

2 Tbsp butter

Confectioners’ sugar

Recipe Preparation

1. Spread 1 Tbsp peanut butter on each slice of bread. Spread a rounded tsp jelly down center of each piece. Fold bread in half, pressing edges to seal.



2. In a 13 x 9-in. baking dish, whisk eggs and milk. Place the sandwiches in the dish and let soak, 1 minute per side.



3. Melt 1 Tbsp butter in a 10-in. nonstick skillet over medium heat. In two batches, cook the sandwiches until golden brown, 2 minutes per side, adding more butter to skillet as needed. Sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar before serving.
