Over the weekend, we saw a show on PBS’ Create making peanut butter jelly rolls. It’s not the healthiest breakfast, lunch or dinner, but it’s quick and easy. The peanut butter offers a great source of protien along with the egg mixture to dip in and the sugar content of the jelly you should be left feeling satisfied and full.

This is one dish you can be thankful for that everyone in the family will eat. It’s also an easy dish to make with the kiddos. They can spread the ingredients on the bread, roll them up, dip them in the egg and hand over to you to cook in the pan. It’s a win win for everyone and your kids will enjoy helping in the kitchen - learning new recipes and how to be creative with their food: besides spreading it on the walls and calling it their “masterpiece”.

Here’s how to make it:

Lay out a few pieces of bread. I would say two per person, but go ahead and try three.

On one half of the piece of bread, spread the peanut butter, and on the other side, spread the jelly.

The peanut butter and jelly will act as the glue as you roll up the piece of bread.

In a large bowl, wisk a few eggs (think one egg per two rolls) and dip the roll into the eggs, covering the whole thing - like you would with French Toast.

Place in a heated pan with melted butter. As it cooks, you will want to rotate each roll so every side cooks evenly.

Once each roll is a crisp, golden brown plate and sprinkle powdered sugar on top.

Hope you enjoy your peanut butter jelly rolls and have fun creating!
