It's hard to find a sandwich as simple and satisfying as a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It's a classic for good reason: it's inexpensive, practical, and incredibly satisfying. To give it a more refined touch, simply swap the ordinary sliced bread for a couple of slices of cinnamon and raisin bread: a soft bread with swirls of warm cinnamon and the honeyed sweetness of raisins.
You can bake a walnut and raisin babka at home or use the last cinnamon and raisin bagel in the pantry; either way, the combination is worth it. Choose a jam that complements the raisins, such as tart blackcurrant or bitter orange. A drizzle of honey or maple syrup in the peanut butter adds a touch of sweetness that complements the warmth of the cinnamon. For an extra twist, you can toast the bread before assembling the sandwich or cook it in a panini press, waffle iron, or air fryer for a crispy texture.
While peanut butter is the usual base, you can also use nut butters like almond, cashew, or walnut butter with brown sugar. Making your own peanut butter is a great way to enhance the sandwich, and peanut butter with salted caramel strikes a perfect balance between sweet and salty. Homemade ruby-red jam also adds a nice touch, and for a spicy kick, simply add canned chipotle peppers to your favorite jam. For something savory, homemade tomato jam or smoked bacon jam makes a sandwich worthy of a formal dinner party.
Other breads work just as well: cinnamon bread with chocolate babka, or pita bread for those who can't stand the crust. With leftover hot dog buns, spread butter and jam inside and place a banana in the middle. If you want to try something different without bread, a stack of peanut butter and jam pancakes is a great alternative.
