Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons softened butter
  • 2 slices Dave's Killer White Bread Done Right bread
  • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon jam or jelly

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Chef's Knife
  • Baking Sheet
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. This step is critical as it prepares the cooking environment for your toast, ensuring that it will bake evenly and achieve that perfect golden-brown color.
  2. In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Mix them well to ensure that the flavors meld together. This blend is what will give your toast its signature sweetness and warmth.
  3. Take 2 slices of Dave's Killer White Bread Done Right bread and spread softened butter generously on one side of each slice. Make sure to cover the entire surface to achieve that golden-brown finish when toasted.
  4. Now, sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over the buttered sides of the bread. Don’t hold back; you want a nice coating for that sweet crunch!
  5. Place the prepared bread slices on a baking sheet, buttered side up, and slide them into the preheated oven. Bake for about 8 to 10 minutes, keeping an eye on them as they toast to perfection.
  6. Once the slices are golden and the sugar mixture has melted, turn the oven to broil. Broil for a minute or two until the sugar starts to bubble and caramelize. Watch closely, as this can happen quickly!
  7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the toast cool slightly. You’ll want to let them set just enough to build your sandwich without burning your fingers.
  8. Spread creamy peanut butter on the unbuttered side of one slice and jam or jelly on the other. Feel free to be generous with both spreads to enhance the flavors.
  9. Carefully put the two slices together, peanut butter and jam sides facing each other, making your delicious sandwich. Cut it in half for easier handling!
  10. Serve immediately for the best experience. The combination of warm toast with the coolness of the spreads is simply divine, a perfect treat for any time of day!
