I Whipped Up Peanut Butter & Jelly French Toast with a Surprising Twist – Uncrustables!
You’ve got to try this quick peanut butter and jelly French toast hack using Uncrustables as a creative breakfast or dessert.
Peanut butter and jelly fans, listen up!
First, we tried making French toast with Hawaiian rolls and now there’s a drool-worthy peanut butter and jelly version trending online. This delicious idea involves soft pillowy sandwiches from the freezer section called Uncrustables.
My kids love them as quick sandwiches on the go, and turns out that Uncrustables French toast is GENIUS. I think you could honestly just make a homemade peanut butter and jelly sandwich for this instead if desired.
We first spotted this idea on Instagram and had to try! You can always easily make your own Uncrustables at home using a sandwich cutter and sealer like this one if store-bought Uncrustables aren’t for you. This could be a breakfast recipe or more of a sweet dessert or treat.
My teenagers were super impressed with this fun French toast idea and immediately made one for themselves. There was enough of the milk and egg mixture to dunk two more sandwiches in.
