FRIED PB & J



Fried PB & J image

Hot rhubarb jam and creamy peanut butter join forces inside a fried crescent roll and conspire to be your new favorite party snack. Use another jam or jelly if you like, but tartness really matters here, and this jam comes together quickly. These are best eaten shortly after frying, while the crescent is crisp and the peanut butter is melted. Dust with confectioners' sugar!

Time 4h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 stalks fresh rhubarb, diced
¼ cup white sugar
½ lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons honey, or more to taste
1 tablespoon water
½ cup sliced strawberries, or to taste
½ cup peanut butter
2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent roll dough
1 cup vegetable oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine rhubarb, sugar, lemon juice, honey, and water together in a saucepan over high heat; cook and stir until rhubarb softens to a pulp, 5 to 10 minutes. Add strawberries and cook until strawberries fall apart and most of the liquid is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and cool jam for 10 minutes.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Measuring out in 1/2 tablespoons, spoon 14 portions of jam and 14 portions of peanut butter onto the prepared baking sheet. Cover baking sheet with plastic wrap and freeze until fillings are solid, 3 hours to overnight.
  • Roll dough onto a lightly floured piece of parchment paper, pressing dough together at the seams. Seal the seams together and slightly flatten dough by rolling a lightly floured rolling pin over it. Cut 28 circles out of dough using a 2-inch cookie cutter. Arrange the circles on the parchment paper.
  • Place 1 jam and 1 peanut butter filling onto the center of 14 dough circles. Place a second circle of dough over the filling, rolling up the edges of the bottom circle and crimping together to seal. Arrange crescent pockets on a baking sheet and freeze.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Fry crescent pockets, 3 at a time, in the hot oil using a small wooden spoon to flip them continuously until golden, about 1 minute per side. Transfer pockets to a paper towel-lined plate.

Categories     Desserts

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup fresh strawberry , or frozen, stemmed and quartered
½ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
vegetable oil, for frying
4 slices white bread
¼ cup creamy peanut butter
¼ cup strawberry jelly, preserves
1 cup pancake mix, batter prepared according to package instructions
powdered sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the strawberries, granulated sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Cook until the berries have started to break down into a thick sauce, 10-15 minutes.
  • Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet or deep pan over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). To test the oil temperature, add a couple drops of pancake batter; if it sizzles immediately, the oil is hot enough.
  • Spread the peanut butter over 2 slices of bread. Spread the jelly over the remaining 2 slices of bread. Sandwich the peanut butter and jelly halves together.
  • Coat each sandwich in the pancake batter. Carefully place in the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain.
  • Cut the sandwiches in half on the diagonal. Place on a plate, pour the strawberry syrup on top, and dust with powdered sugar.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use a good quality peanut butter. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your sandwich.
  • Make sure the peanut butter and jelly are cold. This will help them spread more easily and prevent them from making the bread soggy.

  • Serve the sandwich immediately. This is when it will be at its best.
