Grilled Peanut Butter and Apple Sandwich

When you make bread as moist and tasty as the banana-oatmeal bread that I wrote about yesterday, it just seems to be a shame to smear some butter on it and call it a day. There has to be more to this world than bread and butter, right? Well, Elvis would be proud because I decided to take the banana bread and throw on some PB (though he might not be as happy that I left out the bacon… it just didn’t seem right, but maybe next time!).
This sandwich could be served for breakfast or a snack or even dessert . Really, just eat it whenever you want to because it’s tasty and fun. And a little bit messy with the melty PB. If you are really feeling wild, you could throw some chocolate chips in there. Oh, yum.
Here is how you make the grilled PB&A (this makes two sandwiches):
4 slices of banana-oatmeal bread
4-6 thin apple slices
4 Tbsp. peanut butter
4 tsp. butter or margarine
The process for making this sandwich is just like making a grilled cheese, but with different ingredients. For each sandwich, spread 1 teaspoon of butter on one side of each slice of bread. These will be the outsides of the sandwich. Then spread peanut butter on the insides of one of the slices (2 tablespoons). Lay the apple slices on the pb and then put the other slice of bread on top.
Put the sandwiches on a skillet over medium heat. Let them cook for about 5 minutes (or until the bread is toasted) and then flip them and cook the other side.
Then you’re done! It’s that easy!

That looks good and would be great for breakfast!
I just had my first grilled pear and cheese sandwich and it was divine!
Yum! Grilled pear and cheese sounds great!
This looks amazing! I’m going to have to try it and soon! Stopping by from SITS!
this looks so good. Comforting and refreshing at the same time. Yum! Found you on SITS!
This sandwich is perfect… it offends both your mother and father in one bite. First, your mother would undoubtedly tell you that: 1) fresh apples make many people sick 2) you shouldn’t mix anything but cheese and jelly with your peanut butter (and by the way – it MUST be Jiff) , and 3) the chocolate chips are a really bad idea – the only time that you mix chocolate and peanut butter is in a Reece’s candy bar. Your father would order his by telling you to “hold the bread” – ripe/smelly bananas in anything is a bad idea.
haha! I was thinking about how neither one of you would ever eat it while I was making it! Though, I did use JIF, so Mom would eat it if I left out the apples
This looks perfect for a cold chilly day. Oh! Today is cold and chilly here in S.C. Thanks for stopping by.
