The Elvis...Sleeper Style

The Elvis...Sleeper Style
The Elvis…Sleeper Style
A peanut butter and jelly sandwich has been Christina's favorite lunch since childhood. By her estimations, she's probably consumed almost 10,000 of these sandwiches so far! Well, someone else who was a fan of a peanut butter sandwich was Elvis although his was a little fancier than the every day school lunch box variety. We've taken his iconic recipe and elevated the taste profile from fancy to true rock star status! One bite and you will be singing bababababy!

Makes 1 Sandwich

INGREDIENTS

2 slices White Bread---we like tuscan or potato bread

Unsalted butter, softened

The Original Seasoning

3 slices Bacon

1 tablespoon or so Banana Bam

1 medium ripe Banana, sliced into strips about ¼ “ thick

Special Equipment: Cast Iron Skillet or Flattop Griddle

 INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Heat the skillet or griddle to a medium high heat.
    2. Cook the bacon. For this sandwich, we like to use the microwave for quick crisping. So, line a microwave safe plate with a paper towel. Then place the three slices of bacon on top and cover them with another paper towel. Place in the microwave for three minutes or until crispy--this time will vary based on your oven. When it’s done, sprinkle with The Original seasoning and set aside.
    3. Spread butter on the outside of the bread and place one piece on the grill butter side down.
    4. Then top with a generous amount of peanut butter spreading to about ⅛ “ of the edge so it doesn’t ooze out while grilling.
    5. Then spread a dollop of Banana BAM jam on top of the peanut butter.
    6. Next, top with the banana strips and add a little more Banana BAM on top of the strips. Then add the bacon strips followed by the other slice of bread.
    7. Check the sandwich and if golden and toasty, flip over to grill the other side.
Enjoy!
