The peanut butter and jelly sandwich is a nostalgic classic that combines creamy, nutty richness with bright, fruity sweetness. What sets this version apart is the use of hearty whole wheat bread for extra texture and nutrition, and a dash of flaky sea salt to amplify the flavors. This sandwich is a perfect balance of creamy and chewy, sweet and savory, making it an ideal quick lunch, snack, or even a comforting breakfast. It comes together in minutes but delivers satisfaction that lasts, making it a perennial favorite for all ages.

Lay out the 4 slices of whole wheat bread on a clean surface.
Spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter evenly on each slice.
On two of the slices, spread 1 tablespoon of fruit preserves or jam over the peanut butter.
Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the jam, if desired, to enhance the flavors.
Top the jam-covered slices with the remaining peanut butter slices, peanut butter side down, to form two sandwiches.
Press gently, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately.
