Skilful sandwich that I've been making for years but to salve calories and trans fatty I use peanut butter that'southward made west/o hydrogenated oil (there isn't a difference in taste), and use one of those $10 sandwich makers. It doesn't require butter considering it really toasts the sandwich. Information technology melts the peanut butter and jelly and tastes so good that you won't notice that in that location isn't any type of butter on the outside. And, you'll feel expert considering yous saved yourself a few actress calories.

Oh man, you guys are killin' me out there! When one is a peanut butter junkie and is also trying to nutrition, one should never, always read any kind of review that contains this creamy indulgence. My first mistake was reading the recipe itself when I came beyond it. My 2nd mistake was then reading the reviews! Up until then it was "do I, or don't I"? Thanks to "MC MA of three's" review (the adult female's a bad influence on me) I just couldn't resist! Before I knew it, I was in the kitchen grilling this baby upward. I must say though, that after inhaling it, I felt absolutely no remorse! Chastity, I don't know whether to give thanks you or not for submitting this amazing little sandwich recipe because now I know I'll never get back to my diet! Delicious!!!!

Don't know why I took a Home Ec grade in seventh grade in 1965...guess I wanted something easy just for the credit as I had been cooking and baking for several years already and didn't need this bones teaching. And then the class, as I suspected, was tedious (only fun) for me. We made some pretty basic recipes, none of them particularly memorable. But it speaks volumes that this simple twist on a basic Pb&J sandwich left such an impression on me subsequently all these years. I volition NEVER forget that outset seize with teeth... As with many other things in life, the more elementary things are often the all-time.

Honey information technology!! The simply thing my son can cook and he made this JUST yesterday. I had to laugh at the reviewer who subbed the peanut butter with turkey and the jelly with cheese. That was the funniest review I've ever read.
04/26/2010
I'g an admitted peanut butter addict and love to find new ways to eat the stuff and boy was this skillful! Sometimes the simplest things in life plough out to exist some of the best and this was no exception. If you love peanut butter and jelly sanwiches requite this a try, you'll be glad yous did. Definitely have an ice cold drinking glass of milk handy...
01/18/2008
This is good but it's only a hot peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
07/15/2007
Are you kidding me?? Who thinks of recipes like this? I never in a million years would have thought of toasting my PBJ sandwich. This was absolutely delicious with PB simply dripping right out of it! I'm not certain I could e'er consume a regular one again!

A good way to turn "same ol'" into "sinful." I highly recommend using tablespoons instead of teaspoons for the measurements of peanut butter and jelly. If you're watching fat intake (if you are, why are you eating peanut butter anyway?), you tin can get expert results by leaving out the butter and grill and just popping the sandwich into a toaster oven.
02/04/2011
This was pretty yummy, but I used my foreman and information technology all fell apart on me :( Adjacent time I will effort on a griddle.
08/01/2010
As information technology stands these sandwiches are bang-up. And yep it is a recipe considering I personally had forgotten how practiced these are. Stop rating recipes if you aren't making them. I know it pesters a lot more allrecipe members other than merely myself.
07/23/2003
MMMMM-a squeamish twist on an onetime stand up by. When I was significant with my daughter I craved PB&J on toast and ate it EVERY day...why I didn't think of this is beyond me. I added sliced bananas on tiptop of the pb. Very rich, but very adept thanks Chasity.
09/10/2009
We love grilled peanut butter and jelly, but if yous replace a few chocolate chips for the jelly, y'all will exist the best mom or dad in the neighborhood!!! Information technology is melty peanut butter cups for dinner...yeah!!!! effort information technology and you will never go dorsum!
10/xx/2010
My sister-in-law but told me about these about a week agone. And so like shooting fish in a barrel and Then good!
02/fourteen/2003
WOW! What a surprise. Just idea I would attempt it, and it was good. My nine year erstwhile wanted cypher to do with information technology (She wanted simply a regular sandwich), so I fabricated it for my 3 yr erstwhile. He liked it, so I asked for a taste. Yum! Then my, nine yr old daughter wanted to taste information technology. She liked it too, and wanted a grilled 1 besides. Merely we were out of peanut butter. Now she is upset that she has to wait until tomorrows lunch to take one. I will brand again. I didn't follow ingredient amounts, simply buttered and grilled my regular Lead sandwich.
01/13/2010
Holy mother of....!! this is truly fabulous. I never knew a sandwich could be like this. I made mine with peanut butter on both slices and sliced assistant in-between. If the butter's hard similar mine you can but put a piffling pat down on the pan and turn the sandwich to comprehend the lesser. Had with a glass of cold milk. So practiced I had to telephone call my swain in the eye of the day to inform him I'd had a religious experience.
07/31/2011
I fabricated these thinking they would exist terriffic - after all, I love any type of grilled sandwich. I was disappointed. The peanut butter and jelly oozed out and warm jelly just didn't do information technology for me. Married man was equally unimpressed. I guess I like the original plain old Lead&J's. Cheers for posting anyway, Chasity.
01/20/2009
Absolutely delicious. I took this corrupt recipe one stride farther and used raisin bread instead of the usual white or wheat. Absolutely wonderful. This is besides very practiced with cream cheese and jelly on raisin bread. Thank you for the inspiration.
x/06/2013
This is a actually bang-up sandwich - simply the way the recipe calls for it. I understand some people calculation cinnamon or raisin bread or whatever to conform their own taste. It's not like this is something you lot consume every day. It's a treat - a "once-in-awhile" treat. Enjoy it, for goodness sakes. Why suffer through the drab greasy taste of Pam when you can have the bright creamy gustatory modality of butter. Information technology'southward only a dab or two!! Relax and enjoy!!
12/06/2011
We dear peanut butter and jelly sandwiches but wanted something slightly different. This was cracking twist. I used Skippy's Creamy Peanut Butter with Strawberry Jam and some with Guava Jelly. Oh my goodness! Who would accept idea that just buttered and grilled PBJ sandwich would be so scrumptious. Information technology was just warm, creamy, ooey, gooey, sweet and succulent! So simple and yet and then satisfying! This was corking with a cold glass of milk but I would most likely make this again with tomato soup to get in more of a consummate repast.
07/25/2011
Fifty-fifty though I was sure at historic period ten (40+ years ago, ahem. Aye, I am old haha) that I had "invented" this recipe, I had to give it five stars considering I know how delicious it is! :) If y'all're worried about calories; use no sugar added jam, and all natural peanut butter, then spray the staff of life with pan spray instead of butter. It's non *quite* the same, but still pretty darn good!
04/05/2011
THE Best THING EVER!!!! I don't know why I didnt think of this sandwhich before but thank goodness someone did! Married man and I have had these twice in 3 days! These are Awesome, thank you for sharing !!!!
01/21/2010
I must say that this was very tasty, and something that I had never considered doing before. It wasn't incredible or anything that special, though, to warrant five stars. It was fun to make information technology once, but my girl and I could both care less whether or not we e'er make them again. Basically, it'south just a peanut butter and jelly sandwich made into something a little bit more than special. Cheers for posting it.
07/25/2011
My mom has been making these for 50 years! I didn't know she was and so cut edge. I e'er heard that this was Elvis' favorite food, so we called them Elvis Sandwiches.
09/10/2009
It took me 67 years to detect this. sandwich Thank you,I used orange marmalade instead of jelly try it you lot will love it
07/25/2011
We used to make these years ago when camping. We always use whole grain bread though & they are really good fabricated with cinnamon raisin bread for a breakfast sandwich for the kids.
09/09/2009
I've been making this sandwich for myself and whoever I could convince to try information technology since I was a teenager. YUM YUM YUM!!!!! If you honey peanut butter and jelly, you MUST endeavour this. Words can't express the deliciousness that is "Grilled Peanut Butter and Jelly".
07/27/2011
y'all can make it easier, by just toasting your bread in the toaster... and applying the peanut butter right away while your toast is still hot. It gets all melted and gooey, quickly... add your jelly if y'all desire and consume while information technology'southward still warm. Delish! But thought to share a toasted Lead&J that I have been making since I was a kid, and at present my girls do the same. **because I did non actually make this recipe/grill my sandwich, and I take to rate information technology, I gave information technology a iii**
09/28/2013
Every bit a child, this was one of our favorite sandwiches. I notwithstanding get a craving for one at present and and then. Just remember to be careful when you take the first bite, because the jelly gets very hot.
05/24/2006
Oh baby! I make these all the fourth dimension and it's the only way I eat this sandwich. I apply wheat bread and strawberry jam. When I'yard too lazy to use a pan,I use butter flavor spray on top of the breadstuff and pop it in my toaster oven. Also great with a banana if you don't have jam. Gotta take this with a glass of milk.
12/13/2010
I'grand A Atomic number 82&J Type of Girl, And This Recipe But Made Me Love 'Em Even More!
07/26/2011
i like to use fresh fruit like thin sliced strawberries, any other kind of bush drupe, banana, thin slice apple... the grilling makes it similar a peanut butter- fresh fruit pie!
08/ten/2010
Tasty and filling
12/nineteen/2006
one discussion DELICIOUS!!!!
06/28/2009
Pure indulgance! Used apple jelly and existent butter, fried till crisp. Then spread another thin layer of pb on top. Served to my daughter and hubby with cold glasses of milk. Won me mommy of the year award! Next fourth dimension will effort calculation bananas =D
09/09/2009
Bummer, you put upwardly this recipe before I could! The but affair I suggest is if you like this, try a grilled peanut butter and banana sandwich. They are both AMAZING. But make sure to apply the spatula to squish the sandwich down, it makes a world of difference. mmmm.
04/06/2011
Why did I never think of this??? Information technology was a great change from the bones cold pb&j, which I also LooOoVe! Very yummy twist to the former fave. Thanx.
07/23/2006
Wow, I really didn't actually like this. I love grilled pb and assistant sandwiches. I dearest regular atomic number 82&j sandwiches, but something nigh the hot jelly on this kind of grossed me out. I think office of information technology is that the recipe calls for twice as much jelly as peanut butter. It'd probably be improve to reverse that. I'm sure this is just a matter of taste that I didn't like this so don't let my review scare you off...plenty of other reviewers seemed to bask this quite a bit. Thanks for the recipe anyhow!
07/25/2011
We have been doing this for years, in the pancake side of a griddle (squashed flat). Just instead of jelly we put in chocolate chips, and sometimes marshmallow fluff. Yum, Yum.
09/09/2009
I have also made a Pb&J and dipped it into egg batter and made information technology like french toast. Cut into strips and dip into syrup. My kids honey both ways!
01/21/2012
Awesome! Made this with whole grain staff of life, Jiffy Lead and huckleberry preserves...excellent!
09/06/2011
These were a nice change. Something intresting for a quick lunch. My daughter is dwelling house schooled and like this as a different lunch so the normal grill cheese
08/16/2008
It's like toast, except it takes longer and smokes up the kitchen.
08/20/2011
Very like shooting fish in a barrel and turns a bland Pb&J into super yummy deliciousness that you actually desire to consume!
11/01/2007
The hot peanut butter and jelly run out all over the place and burn my fingers and make a mess. I'll just have my Pb&J on toast if I want it hot.
07/31/2010
Oh beloved. I feel deplorable for everyone who has to sentry their weight and calories, I really do. Due to lives of moderation and eating healthfully, my kids and I were able to really enjoy this treat without any guilt whatsoever. We thought it was delicious, and will make again. I will but say that for me, 4 minutes per side was too long ... peradventure I had the rut upwardly too high (was at medium).
04/23/2007
This is sooooo goood comfort food! PB&J Pizza is skilful too!
04/02/2012
I can't say there was annihilation incorrect with this just I don't think it was for me (just a matter of taste). I baked my sandwich since I don't have a good grill anymore. Watch out for hot jelly - hot sugar is super hot! Thanks for the idea. I made this and ate it on National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day.
09/19/2009
Love this recipe and then does everyone i've fabricated information technology for...making it this manner gives a totally dissimilar texture and gustatory modality...its really skilful!
06/25/2010
Oh my gosh! And so delicious! Here's a tip- instead of using butter, merely utilise no stick spray to spray onto the backs of your sandwich for an like shooting fish in a barrel alternitive. But this was ane of the near simply delicious things I've ever tasted!!! I could eat it again and once again and again...and once again!
10/06/2013
The only improvement I tin think of (it doesn't really demand any) would be to make this with raisin breadstuff. Yum.
09/09/2009
This is the best style to eat Pb&J - instead of cooking mine on a grill however, I put information technology in the toaster oven - a few minutes on i side, flip, so a few minutes on the other. Saves using the butter, dirtying a pan and tastes just as yummy.
04/01/2012
DH is a peanut butter & jelly fan. I told him nigh grilling information technology. He gave it a try and must of liked it because he's on his second sandwich. He said he would brand ut over again. Thanks Chasity for the recipe.
09/05/2010
It was delicious! I melted the butter in the skillet instead of spreading it (similar I do w/ grilled cheese) on the bread...worked only as well. Also, I had it with actress crunchy peanut butter and it was peachy.
03/29/2009
sooo good but i've got to let out another hush-hush: I grew up on grilled peanut butter, no jelly and let me tell yous, it's amazing every bit well!! whole wheat bread, lots of gooey peanut butter, grill 'er up and enjoy!
02/23/2012
Ane of my all time favorite sandwich! It has been around since the dinosaurs, but continues to hit the spot with kids and adults! Great fashion to perk upwards America's favorite!!
10/25/2010
I accept been making this sandwich for YEARS! All of my friends remember I am crazy when I mention this being one of my faves. I am and then glad to see it posted. But to add a little twist to this sometimes I add a little red onion. Don't gauge me, endeavour it!
07/29/2014
Wait… what?! You lot tin can grill peanut butter and jelly? I am not sure if I can ever go back to a regular peanut butter and jelly sandwich after this. It was so simple and succulent!
03/23/2012
This was too weird to me. I didn't care much for information technology. It was like combining the taste of a grilled cheese sandwich and a pb&j together. I even followed the exact amount of peanut butter and jelly, as little of an amount as the peanut butter seemed. I bet most kids would dear information technology though.
09/11/2011
my ten twelvemonth former nephew "invented" this when they plant out he was alergic to milk. he was a grilled cheese junkie and needed a replacement. he like it with bananas and no jelly simply LOTS of butter for grilling. reminds me of Elvis.
07/31/2010
Awesome !!! I made peanut butter and honey sandwich though because I prefer honey over jelly any twenty-four hours...Might effort Monte Christos style next time put the peanut butter and honey in an egg wash before frying them
09/29/2013
Super Yummy! The buttery crisis of grilled cheese with the deliciousness of peanut butter and jelly! I find it easier to assemble a regular PB&J sandwich, butter 1 side and put in on the skillet, then butter the other side. And so the butter doesn't go all over my plate & hands. Great recipe!
07/27/2011
There is another version of this (every bit yummy). Instead of buttering the exterior of the staff of life....but make the peanut sandwich like you normally would, and then dip the whole sandwich into an egg and milk batter that you would dip french toast into. Then brown on a griddle like you lot would french toast. Of form, with pb&j you cant get wrong.
xi/08/2011
You would non believe how Delicious something then simple could be! This is so easy and quick, but it is Amazing. The peanut butter really gets a crispy gustation and fantastic texture. Attempt it out, you've got nothing to lose!
07/31/2010
I like peanut butter, sliced bananas, and honey...yum!
08/16/2008
My mom always made these for u.s., and I've converted several naysayers over the years myself. But be careful and allow information technology cool a scrap earlier eating, because the hot peanut butter and jelly tends to become like burning hot lava. Simply really yummy burning hot lava, at least.
03/17/2003
Mmm! I won't eat a PB&J any other way! This also grills up nicely with "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" spray if you'd like to save some calories.
07/25/2011
I add powdered sugar on the acme when done, tastes bully!!!
09/02/2014
Why did I never think of this? Information technology'south so simple and succulent. Everyone in my family loves them. Sprinkled with a trivial powdered sugar they sense of taste like pastries. Anybody must try this!
01/10/2010
Things that I always practise when making grilled PB&J 1) mix cinamon with the butter before spreading it on the exterior of the bread. 2) use the peanutbutter with honey in it, and mix cinamon with that. iii) dust it with powdered carbohydrate after grilling it. Sometimes, besides, i make it double layered. Which. Is. AMAZING!
09/17/2014
I decide to do this...I'm thinking i would love this because I dear peanut butter and all grilled sandwiches simply this...never agian
04/15/2011
Peachy sandwich, where has it been all my life. Growing up on Pb & J sandwiches but never thought to grill them. I am sure in that location are numerous ways to change up this sandwich. I prefer them with bananas in the middle.
12/xviii/2010
It tasted like toast with a classic atomic number 82 and j.
09/26/2011
I love it and the kids say,they volition never go dorsum to plain peanut butter and jelly. The only reason I didnt give it five stars is because when I added bananas to it thats when it took the sandwich to a v star level
01/29/2015
Grilled Atomic number 82& J sandwich?! Are you crazy?! Who thinks of these things?! I confront palmed myself when I saw this... I ran to the pantry and fridge and grabbed what I needed. Must attempt this now! And then I was continuing over my pan while it was heating up trying to determine how I could put PB on i side of the staff of life and butter on the other without making a HUGE mess when I thought (insert another face palm) "cook the butter in the pan instead of spreading it on the outside". I can be a genius too sometimes! Did a quick spritz of nonstick spray just to make sure nothing stuck just to spite me, melted the butter, one slice of breadstuff with PB on it went in, piece with jelly topped it-- waited impatiently to flip-- slid spatula under sandwich and melted more butter into the pan and then flipped the sandwich back into the pan jelly slice down. It is done now and I am waiting for information technology to cool slightly. Though I take a slight headache now, I am sure the cold milk and Crawly sandwich volition make me feel meliorate. **mental annotation to cocky** Needs more PB & J (bread absorbed a lot of it)!
04/09/2011
My goodness! I made this an added marshmallows and bananas. Holy smokes! Smokes, and so tasty!
03/13/2011
My seven yr old loved this. Im certain I'll be making this again for her.
07/xxx/2011
Turned out to be great! (Despite my expectations)
09/09/2009
omg! my new fav go-to sammy! i apply natural almond butter and bootleg low-sugar no-cook raspberry freezer jam. it's wonderful on killer grain staff of life but is elevated to a new level when grilled. cheers for reminding me of ways to spiff up an otherwise ordinary sandwich.
07/25/2011
Wow! I've been making these for about 40 years! I didn't realize that in that location was a recipe for them! They are delicious!!!
09/28/2013
I have used this recipe for years, however, I utilise JAM rather than jelly and recently I've started 'buttering' the bread with real mayonnaise instead of the butter-much more than even browning. A give-and-take of circumspection: THE JELLY OR JAM STAYS HOT FOR A VERY LONG TIME-- Be CAREFUL WHEN SERVING THIS SANDWICH TO CHILDREN.
05/10/2010
I grew up eating these, simply we do it like this at my house... toast the breadstuff and spread each piece with jam and lead, printing together and eat. Much easier than grilling in a skillet.
08/23/2011
For a peanut butter lover similar me, information technology cannot go simpler or better.
10/29/2009
This was then gross! I couldn't go my little boy to eat information technology. He tried it and wouldn't touch information technology once again. So I thought I should give it a shot and see if he was just pulling my leg and information technology was so disgusting, I wanted to gag. I did, however, besides make a grilled Pb & honey sandwich and it was really, actually good.
09/09/2009
Gee, where has everyone been? I take been making these for the last 40 years, I figured if I could grill cheese sandwiches, I could grill pbj's also.Much better than just toasting them! Sandy
07/thirty/2003
This was just great. I never thought of grilling a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I did a whole papering in college on peanut butter and jelly sandwich .And I didn't see this recipe before. I didn't use butter, I used "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" spray.
07/25/2011
This is 1 of my very best favorite become-to sandwiches and has been for years. My girl & xv-yr old grandson similar it as is. Only...my 11-yr old granddaughter and I add a slice of 2% Kraft American cheese. I've also used Velveeta, too. Yous just have to be conscientious as both the peanut butter and the cheese can burn your mouth.
07/25/2011
Sure there isn't a error in the amt. of peanut butter and jelly in the recipe. Can't imagine being able to spread ane teaspoon of p.b. and 2 teaspoons of jelly on two slices of bread. Oasis't tried it still, just I am a peanut butter lover and know even a tablesppon doesn't go very far! Someone comment, please. With all those v star reviews information technology must work. Or they used more.
x/xvi/2012
Honey it, it's everything a PB and J should be!
06/23/2009
i am a pb and j fanatic...SO Delicious!
01/12/2008
This bad male child is really skillful! I had issues with my peanut butter and jelly squirting out every time I fleck in to it though. So I had some flour tortillas laying around, spread the pb&j on it and popped information technology into the microwave for about 8-10 seconds and rolled information technology upwardly (besides rolling up one end). Tastes just as good and all the ooey gooey pb&j stays in!! Edited to add that I used MUCH more than the tsp of peanut butter and jelly.
05/26/2009
Never idea to do this, but its good.
09/09/2009
I've been making this for my son for a while now, one note though. If yous will put a sparse glaze of peanutbutter on each piece of staff of life so put the jelly on one side it kinda keeps the jelly from leaking through the bread.
02/02/2007
My kids and I LOVE these!!! They are soo yummy, just exist careful with immature kids because the jelly gets very hot!
09/26/2012
I did not care for this recipe. A normal pb&J is much better.
02/13/2013
Back when I was a teenager, I found a recipe similar to this one that I used to make for my younger sis. Yet, we wound up modifying in a way that fabricated information technology even more than yummy--WARNING, though, it is Not a healthy recipe. Spread peanut butter on i slice of bread (I would use more similar ane TB); superlative with your choice of 2 tsp jelly (I like the classic grape). Butter the other piece of bread and then sprinkle with approximately 1 tsp. sugar and ane/4 tsp. cinnamon (or a cinnamon/sugar blend). Place the two halves together, PB&Y touching cinnamon/sugar mix. Then, lightly butter the outsides of the sandwich; grill until nicely browned. DELISH! Y'all tin do a footling amend calorie-wise by using a healtier peanut butter (I similar Smart Residual) and reduced calorie butter or margerine, such equally Olivo Butter Spread. Enjoy!
09/01/2007
One give-and-take: YUMMY! The just way to consume PB&J. I prefer it with a whole grain bread, crunchy peanut butter and a good jam. Corrupt!
03/28/2006
Excellent. I find it to be easier to butter the pan, as putting the Pb/J on the bread with one side buttered is messy. Very good, though. I have frequent cravings for it.
10/12/2006
I don't know what all the hype with this is about. It was a warm peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Not a favorite of ours.
01/17/2009
My teens liked it. It fabricated me cringe.
