Ingredients

  • 4 lices favorite sandwich bread
  • 4 tablespoons peanut butter or preferred nut butter or seed butter
  • 4 teaspoons favorite jelly, jam or fruit preserves
  • fresh berries, grapes or banana slices

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Spread one slice of bread with peanut butter, spread another slice with fruit preserves, and sandwich the two together. 
  2. Use small cookie cutters (hearts, circles, stars, etc) to make mini sandwiches. 
  3. Skewer the mini sandwiches onto bamboo skewers along with fresh berries or other favorite fruits you have on hand. 

Notes

  • Customize to your tastes. We all know that you can make a PB&J any way you like it so these skewers are no exception. Want to use almond butter or sun butter? Raspberry preserves or grape jelly? Bananas on the skewers instead of berries? Go for it! Get creative and enjoy.
  • Make the sandwich, then cut. It’s easier to make a regular PB&J and then use cookie cutters to cut them into the perfect size for skewers. For less food waste, start cutting from one edge and work your way to the other. Parent hack… eat the extra PB&J edges as a little snack!
  • For lunch boxes. Measure and cut the skewers to size before you add the mini sandwiches when you want to add these to a bento box style lunch box.
