Dunno if this has been posted before, but I shall post it anyway!
When I was in Edinburgh, I become briefly obsessed with peanut butter sandwiches. It became pretty much all I ate for a week.
To mix it up, I'd toast them thusly:
Make a standard peanut butter sandwich, sprinkle some cinnamon on that shit.
Butter the outside of the sandwich, sprinkle some brown sugar on that shit.
Grill it until the sugar is caramelised.
Wait for it to cool down a bit (it get's really hot), then eat.
Repeat until you are sick of peanut butter.
Damn, that sounds gud.
I was under the impression that you folks over thar had been groomed to find peanut butter uncouth?
I love peanut butter.
I must do this.
The only grooming that takes place over here concerns grooming sheep online.
A cousin of mine used to it something very similar, but I don't think he used brown sugar and cinnamon. :fap:
My favorite grilled PB sandwich is made thusly:
Make a standard peanut butter sandwich, break up a Hershey's milk chocolate bar (or your favorite one instead) and stick on top of the peanut butter. Grill the sandwich open faced (with the top grilling as well). at the end, flip the top onto the chocolate and finish the PB&C sammy!
Fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches are one of my kid's favorites. I will have to try the cinnamon and brown sugar, I usually just fry them like a grilled cheese.
I usually just make a PB and jelly sammich and stick it in the toaster oven for a bit to let it get warm and everything gooey and the bread a li'l crispy (I usually toast it right quick before slathering on the fixin's, though) and then eat. It is warm gooey happiness in my mouf.
...That's what she said. :fap:

A reese's cup sandwich? :lulz:
hmmm this on a croissant.....
damn now I'm hungry!
ZOMFG. On the croissant is a great idea.
Must... make... now...
Also, the pb&chocolate sammy can be made under a low broiler in about 2 minutes or so.
Somewhere I have one of those cute little George Foreman grills, but I have to get it from ex roomies. Along with check. Yay dollars!

I used a "cute little" Foreman for the grilling of my sammiches.
As your lawyer, I advise you to do the same.

I just have to reobtain it.
Then I'll paint a pterodactyl on it.
Then I'll make sammiches FOR GREAT JUSTICE!
I have never used my Foreman for sammich grilling. I should try this.
I haven't either, but I certainly will. How much easier than a darn skillet!!!!
I have some really awesome dark chocolate sauce that I have put on a sandwich in conjunction with peanut butter. MMmmmmmm.
My favorite brunch restaurant has a toasted peanut butter, honey and banana sandwhich on it's kids menu. I got it for my daughter last time we were there. Thankfully she wasn't too interested in it so I got to eat most of it. It was messy as hell but so damn awesome.
I have a waffle iron that doubles as a sandwich maker, and it's perfect for such perfidious nonsense.

Srsly, toasted peanut butter and honey is effing DELICIOUS. I can only dream of the win that would result from adding banana. Mmmm.
wait, i have peanutbutter, banana and honey
and bread
ZOMG
I'm thinking we should do this for dinner.
We have honey, we also have honey peanut butter. :eek: We just need to run to the store since we ran out of sugar and don't have brown sugar.
Pics to come.
My try:
Wheat bread
Skippy Honey Peanut Butter
Butter
Cinnamon
Brown Sugar
Did everything as Payne instructed....

I think I let it cook for too long being that I'm used to grilled cheese. It's alright, I'm going to try again tomorrow. Brown sugar holds more moisture than white so I don't think I got it coated as well as I should have, so I think I'm going to make a cinnamon sugar butter amalgamation tomorrow with crunchy peanut butter, since I'm almost out of honey.
Anybody mention pb & nutella yet? That's my kid's fave. I like that plus banana.
Grilled nutella and jam sandwich.
Nutella and sensitive body parts.
vegimite and marmalade

YUMMY YES
At this crepe place over in Brookline, they make Nutella hot chocolate, which is exactly what it sounds like--hot chocolate with nutella in it! They also do it frozen, and both versions are amazing. Throw in a shot of espresso and I'm pretty much in heaven several times over. Mmmm.
My 8 year old's fave snack is nutella on a spoon. And yes, he's a pudgy guy. :lol:
Nutella in crepes is TO DIE FOR. Fr rls.
I just made Payne's sandwiches again...here's this go around:
wheat bread (we never eat white)
Crunchy PB
the rest of the shit you need
This time I put the butter on first, then followed with the cinnamon and brown sugar. I think I went a tad overboard on the cinnamon. However, this time I didn't let it cook that long, just searing it for a few seconds on each side to let the sugar caramelize like Payne suggested.
It's a bit mushier this time, which I could blame on the crunchy PB or the fact that I didn't BURN it, but overall, quite tasty. Next time I need to figure out how to get a good amount of sugar on there, since brown sugar is so moist. or try granulated sugar mixed with the cinnamon like how my mom used to make cinnamon toast.
