Notes, tips, and variations

  • Make a standard peanut butter and jelly sandwich and cook it in the same manner; these are very good.
  • Make a standard peanut butter and marshmallow fluff sandwich and cook it in the same manner. These are very good, but can be a bit messy.
  • Substitute almond or cashew butter for peanut butter.
  • Other kinds of bread can be substituted for the white bread.
