“What? You’ve never eaten an apple peanut butter sandwich?!” declared my young friend Aldie (11) upon hearing that no, I had not, and indeed somehow that rite of childhood had passed me by. “They’re so easy! And good. And good for you,” she added. You know what? She’s right. PB&J, move over. It’s time for PB&A.
For those of us who might have any lingering doubts as to how truly easy this sandwich is to make, Alden has prepared a short video on exactly how to make one. (Food Network, watch out!)
Apple Peanut Butter Sandwich Recipe
PrintOne apple will yield enough apple slices for 2 to 4 sandwiches, depending on the size of the apple and the size of the bread.
Ingredients
- Apple
- Peanut Butter
- Sliced Bread
Method
1 Quarter, core, and slice the apple into thin slices.
2 Spread peanut butter over one slice of bread, going all the way to the edges. Make sure to use enough peanut butter so that the apple slices stick.
3 Place apple slices over the peanut butter in a single layer. Top with another slice of bread. Cut in half.

I remove the skin from the apples then chop them up in food processor and layer this on top of the peanut butter -which makes it edible and easily digested for even the youngest kids -love my PB& A sandwiches :-)
My four year old son just watched the video and made the sandwich. HE LOVES IT!! Plus he asked if Aldie could come over and play. :)
Ah, that’s so cute! ~Elise
Have made this a dozen times since the recipes been posted. Tastes great and kinda healthy!!
Atta girl Aldey! What a great video Elise. I think you have a future intern on your hands! :)
Ya think? Hope to do some more of these later this summer. Hope to see you too Cat! ~Elise
my favorite is PB and onion. It is yummy! Altho I have to admit I put onions in just about everything. My husband says the only thing I haven’t put onions in is my ice cream, and he is sure one day that I will try that too.
