PB, J, & A Sandwich

I ate this sandwhich everyday when I worked (And I ate it just now for old time's sake. MMMMM). It's nummy. The microwave version makes the apples soft and reminds me of a PBJ Apple Pie Sandwhich. The skillet version keeps the apples crispier. I highly recommend Granny Smiths (I'm biased) and feel free to adjust ingredients to your taste. I use Smuckers sugar free jam. I've tried blackberry, apricot, and strawberry. As for the PB, you can buy it at Trader Joe's or at www.peanutwonder.com. Each 2 tbsp. serving is 100 cals and 2.5g fat! :) Show more

Directions

  1. LIGHTLY toast bread- just enough to firm it.
  2. Core the apple and cut in half.
  3. Set one half aside and thinly slice one half.
  4. Coarsely chop the other.
  5. Spread jam on one side, PB on the other.
  6. Place apple slices evenly over on top of one slice of toast.
  7. Sprinkle 1 tsp (or more) cinnamon, a pinch of both the allspice and ginger.
  8. Place other toast on top, spread side down of course.
  9. You have two options: Make it like a grilled cheese, or microwave it for one minute.
  10. Meanwhile, while cooking, place chopped apples in a ziploc with remaining spices and shake to evenly to coat.
  11. You have options here as well: You can add them to the skillet, nuke them for a few seconds, or eat as is!
  12. Enjoy!
