Yields: 1 sandwich
Prep time: 2 minutes
Cook time: 2-4 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 slices of your favorite bread
• 1-2 tablespoons peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
• 1-2 tablespoons Muscadine Hull Preserves
• 1 teaspoon butter (optional, for extra flavor)

Instructions

Toast the Bread:

• Toast both slices of bread to your preferred level of crispness. This gives your sandwich a sturdy base and the perfect crunch.

Assemble the Sandwich:

• Spread peanut butter as thick as you’d like on one or both slices of toasted bread.
• Add a generous layer of Sweet Home Muscadine Hull Preserves on the other slice.
• Press the two sides together to create your classic Muscadine PB Toastie.

Make It Melty:

• Spread a thin layer of butter on the outside of both sides of the sandwich.
• Place it in a skillet over medium-low heat and cook until the bread is golden, the peanut butter turns warm and silky, and the preserves become wonderfully gooey.

Serve It:

• Transfer your warm Sweet Home Muscadine PB Toastie Melt to a plate and slice it diagonally (the only correct way 😉).
• Pair with a cold glass of milk or iced coffee.

Tips and Variations

• Type of Bread: Heartier breads like sourdough or whole wheat hold up well to the double toasting.
• Butter Alternative: You can use a little bit of oil or even cooking spray instead of butter for the second toast.
• Add Ins: For extra fun, sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on the outside of the sandwich before you "make it melty."

Perfect Pairing

• This Sweet Home Muscadine PB Toastie Melt goes surprisingly well with a bowl of vegetable soup — comforting, nostalgic, and cozy.
