Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices favorite sandwich bread
- 4 tablespoons peanut butter, almond butter, sunflower seed butter, or preferred spread
- 4 teaspoons favorite jelly, jam, or fruit preserves
- Fresh berries, grapes, or banana slices
- Bamboo skewers
Instructions
- Spread one slice of bread with peanut butter (or another favorite spread).
- Spread another slice with jelly, jam, or fruit preserves.
- Press the slices together to make a sandwich.
- Use small cookie cutters, such as hearts, stars, or circles, to cut the sandwich into bite-sized shapes.
- Thread the mini sandwiches onto bamboo skewers, alternating with fresh fruit.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
Notes
- Customize freely: Swap peanut butter for almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter. Use any favorite jam, jelly, or fruit preserves.
- Cut after assembling: Making the full sandwich first creates cleaner shapes and minimizes waste. The leftover crusts make a great snack.
- Lunchbox-friendly: Trim bamboo skewers to fit bento-style lunchboxes before assembling.
- Mix up the fruit: Berries, grapes, banana slices, melon, kiwi, and apple chunks all work well depending on what’s in season.
