Happy Happy Tuesday!!! I’m back! Again! haha, seriously y’all, I promise I’ll start posting more regularly again, for reals I’ve been the worst food blogger ever, but life has been super duper busy, which I’ll take, because honestly I get bored easily haha.
Anyways, I believe most kids, and parents are back into the swing of things for the new school year by now and can I just say how happy I am that I’m done with school… even thinking about it sends bouts of anxiety coursing through me haha. I got to thinking the other day of things I actually miss about being a kid in school, and obviously the whole not being an adult part was pretty great, getting to see your friends everyday was cool, but hands down my daily peanut butter and jelly sandwiches always brought a smile to my face at lunch.
I still crave peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and it got me wondering if I could amp up one of my fav time kid foods to be more adult like–no, I didn’t put alcohol in this, but that’s something to think about–and I came up with frying one of these bad boys. Now you can’t just throw something in a buttery pan and call it fried, I knew it had to be coated in something equally awesome and I figured Frosted Flakes would do the trick–so much for being adult like.
Y’all, can I just say how incredibly, insanely awesome this fried PB & J turned out? Holy moly, the crunchy outside, the melty soft inside, drooollll. I also got a little fancy and bought a fresh baked loaf of bread, unsliced so I could cut my own gigantic slices, and I’m so happy I did, because more is usually better with food haha. Anyways, I hope y’all get to enjoy this soon and thank you so much for stopping by, have a wonderful day!
First, peanut butter and jelly onto your bread…
get your crushed up Frosted Flakes and egg wash ready for dipping…
fully coat your sandwich in the egg wash…
then fully coat in the Frosted Flakes…
get the first side perfectly grilled…
then the other side…
and enjoy!!!
- Thickly sliced bread (or a regular bread of your choice).
- 1-2 Cups of Frosted Flakes Cereal, Crushed.
- 2 Eggs.
- 2-3 Tablespoons of Milk.
- Peanut Butter.
- Jelly.
- Measure out 1-2 cups of Frosted Flakes and crush them up with your hands, place on a plate and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk up your eggs and milk until well combined, set aside.
- Place a large pan on medium heat, melting a few tablespoons of butter into it.
- Take your slices of bread and put your desired amount of peanut butter and jelly on either side, then take the whole sandwich and dip into your egg wash on each side, then dip into the frosted flakes, making sure to heavily coat.
- Now place your sandwich into your pan for a couple of minutes on either side (or until desired crispness is reached), slice in half and enjoy!!!
- I bought a fresh baked loaf of bread that wasn't sliced, just so I could control the thickness of the slices, if you can do this as well I highly recommend it, it was ridiculously decadent.
