Here’s a quick outline of the very best peanut butter sandwich variations and why they deserve their own merits as American classics.
Peanut Butter Jelly Sandwich (The Original)
Almost as classic as the simple peanut butter sandwich, a peanut butter jelly sandwich pretty much provides you with the same humbling satisfaction as its predecessor. Donned as the original variation on a PJ sandwich, this combination satisfies both the sweet and savory senses, so never underestimate the original, especially when you invest your time and effort into a proper good-quality jelly. What more could you want?
Banana Peanut Butter Sandwich (The Healthy-ish One)
A banana peanut butter sandwich is the number one morning choice when it’s best to eat something reasonably nutritious. It’s the perfect solution for when you want to feel somewhat healthy-ish and start the day right. Not only does it provide you with your daily intake of potassium (winner!), but the spot-on flavor combination of banana and peanut is seriously undeniable. Add a pinch of cinnamon and you’ve got yourself a party.
