Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bread slices
- 2 tablespoons Peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons Jam or jelly (any flavor)
- 1 teaspoon Butter (optional, for toasting)
Instructions
Place the two slices of bread on a clean and flat surface, such as a plate or cutting board.
Spread 2 tablespoons of peanut butter evenly on one side of the first slice of bread using a knife.
Spread 2 tablespoons of jam or jelly evenly on one side of the second slice of bread using a clean knife.
Carefully place the two slices of bread together, with the peanut butter and jelly sides facing each other.

Cut the sandwich in half diagonally or vertically, if desired, and serve immediately.
