When I eat a sandwich, I want it to be both filling and delicious. This hearty sandwich is packed with sauteed and very lightly sweetened cinnamon apples and peanut butter. Warm, gooey, and a little messy, this will please both kids and adults! I used Peanut Butter & Co. Smooth Operator here it can also be made with Peanut Butter & Co. Mighty Maple, The Bee’s Knees, or Old Fashioned Crunchy.
Ingredients
- 2 small or 1 large apple
- 2 tbsp. butter, divided
- 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 2 tsp. brown sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla
- 4 slices whole wheat bread
- 4-6 tbsp. Peanut Butter & Co. Smooth Operator
Directions
- Wash, core, and cut the unpeeled apple into 1/8” slices.
- Add 1 tablespoon of butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, and water to a large saucepan over medium heat and stir to combine. Add the sliced apples and make sure to coat them in the liquid mixture.
- Cover the pan and simmer the apples for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. The apples should be slightly soft but still crisp.
- Add the vanilla to the pan and mix the apples to make sure that the vanilla gets incorporated.
- Remove the apples to a plate and leave behind any liquid in the pan.
- Melt another tablespoon of butter in the pan. Spread 1–1 1/2 tablespoons of Peanut Butter & Co. Smooth Operator on one side of each piece of bread.
- Divide the sauteed apples in half and place each half on one piece of bread.
- Place the remaining two pieces of bread, peanut butter side down, on top of the apples. Cook the sandwiches over medium heat until brown, about 2–4 minutes.
- Carefully flip the sandwiches over and cook the second side for another 2-4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and serve immediately.
