Peanut Butter and Syrup Sandwiches by Jes Mostek serves: 4	No ratings Rating Details Rate this recipe Printable View Print Index Cards

A simple, not-too-sweet sandwich that compliments hearty soups and stews. Very kid-friendly!

Ingredients:

4 standard size slice

wheat sandwich bread

4 tbsp

favorite peanut butter, crunchy or creamy

1.50 tbsp

Karo Syrup or other corn syrup

Directions:

Combine peanut butter and syrup* together in small bowl until well-blended. Add more of either ingredient to suit taste.
Spread mixture onto one slice of bread then top with another slice to make a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining two slices. Cut each sandwiches into quarters and feel free to cut the edges. Enjoy with any savory soup or stew.

*Karo Syrup is the way my mother always made this sandwich but honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar would always be a great substitute.
