Gather Ingredients and Tools.
Collect 2 slices of whole wheat bread, 2 tablespoons of natural peanut butter, 1 tablespoon of fruit jelly, and 1 cup of skim milk. Also, get a butter knife, a spoon, and a glass for the milk.
Tip: Use a clean butter knife to avoid mixing flavors. -
Spread Peanut Butter on Bread.
Take one slice of whole wheat bread and evenly spread 2 tablespoons of natural peanut butter over the surface using the butter knife. Make sure to cover the bread edge to edge for even taste.
Tip: If peanut butter is hard, warm it slightly by placing the jar in warm water for a minute to make spreading easier. -
Add Fruit Jelly.
Using a clean spoon or knife, spread 1 tablespoon of fruit jelly evenly on the other slice of bread. Cover the entire slice to balance sweetness with the peanut butter.
Tip: Use fruit jelly without added sugar if you prefer a healthier option. -
Assemble the Sandwich.
Place the slice with peanut butter on top of the slice with jelly, peanut butter side down, to form a sandwich. Press gently to help the two slices stick together.
Tip: Cut the sandwich diagonally or in half for easier eating if desired. -
Pour Skim Milk.
Pour 1 cup (240ml) of chilled skim milk into a glass to accompany your sandwich.
Tip: Chilled milk tastes best; you can add ice cubes if you like.
Pro tips
- Use natural peanut butter with no added sugar or salt for a healthier option.
- Toast the bread lightly if you prefer a warm and crunchy sandwich.
