Published by [Danielle Fantasia](https://blog.mtiproducts.com/author/danielle-fantasia) on Apr 2, 2021 9:30:00 AM ![National PB&J Day_ Celebrating with the AutoFry!](https://blog.mtiproducts.com/hs-fs/hubfs/National%20PB%26J%20Day_%20Celebrating%20with%20the%20AutoFry!.png?width=1500&name=National%20PB%26J%20Day_%20Celebrating%20with%20the%20AutoFry!.png) Happy National Peanut Butter & Jelly Day! Here at [MTI](http://www.mtiproducts.com), we love a good food holiday, and we could not be more excited for his one. Without a doubt this American classic is a favorite throughout not only our country, but our history. According to the  [Nation Peanut Board](https://www.nationalpeanutboard.org/news/who-invented-the-peanut-butter-and-jelly-sandwich.htm#:~:text=In%201901%2C%20the%20first%20peanut,written%20by%20Julia%20Davis%20Chandler.), the first PB&J sandwich recipe debuted in the *Boston Cooking School Magazine of Culinary Science and Domestic Economics* written by Julia Davis Chandler. It has been said that her recipe included a crab apple or currant jelly, very different from the traditional grape jelly or strawberry jam. In honor of this timeless sandwich, we have put together our own recipe, but with a bit of a twist. We decided to kick it up a notch and deep-fry our PB&J in the [AutoFry](http://www.autofry.com) until it is golden and crispy on the outside and filled with ooey-gooey deliciousness on the inside! Talk about a great addition to any restaurant, bar, or brewery. Try out the recipe today and you’ll be adding it to your menu tomorrow!![PB&J Duo](https://blog.mtiproducts.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PB%26J%20Duo.png?width=303&name=PB%26J%20Duo.png) **Ingredients** - 2 Slices of White Bread - 2 Tablespoons of Peanut Butter - 2 Tablespoons of Grape Jelly **Instructions** - Spread 2 tablespoons of peanut butter on one side of one slice of white bread. - Spread 2 tablespoons of grape jelly on one side of the remaining slice of white bread. - Press together the two sides containing the peanut butter and jelly, so both spreads are no longer exposed. - Using a large cookie cutter or a knife, remove the crust, creating a circle. - With a fork, press down firmly on the open edges of your now circular sandwich, this way none of the filling can escape. - Freeze for one hour or longer. - When ready to cook, place frozen PB&J into the AutoFry food chute. - Set your AutoFry timer for 1 minute. - Close your food chute, dumping the PB&J into the enclosed oil pot.  - Press the start button. - When the time sounds, your freshly fried sandwich will dispense from the exit chute and into your pan. - Dust with powdered sugar or serve with a scoop of ice cream. Sounds AMAZING right? Don’t be afraid to get a little creative and test out different combinations. Try chocolate hazelnut spread with raspberry jam, or crunchy peanut butter with marshmallow fluff. The possibilities are practically endless!
