"Everyone has their own idea of the perfect peanut butter and jelly. Some people like an elevated version made with natural ingredients and homemade berry jam, others want the soft sliced bread of their childhood, or a specific type of peanut butter. Then, of course, there are the smooshed and unsmooshed camps - and don't get us started on the chunky versus smooth debate. But sometimes, an Uncrustable is the perfect answer to all of those problems."
"When you fry an Uncrustable, the exterior of the bread will become golden and crispy, which contrasts with the soft and gooey inside. To achieve the best crust, fry the Uncrustable in a pan of butter or oil, leaving it undisturbed for about one minute before flipping and repeating. A skillet works best, but any pan will work. Make sure you use thawed Uncrustables, as the water will cause the oil to splatter and prevent the crust from forming if it's still frozen."
"You can also air fry Uncrustables - just crank your air fryer to 390 degrees Fahrenheit and stick the Uncrustable in for eight to 10 minutes. If you want more indulgence, brush them in melted butter. No matter what, do yourself a favor and let the Uncrustables cool slightly before eating. If you want, you can sprinkle them with powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar after they're done, or serve them with sweet dips like Nutella, maple syrup, or more peanut butter."
Frying Uncrustables in butter or oil creates a golden, crispy exterior that contrasts with a soft, gooey filled center. Thawed Uncrustables fry best; frozen sandwiches risk oil splatter and poor crust formation. A skillet works well; leave the sandwich undisturbed for about one minute per side for optimal browning. Air frying at 390°F for eight to ten minutes provides a hands-off alternative, with an option to brush melted butter for extra indulgence. Let the fried sandwiches cool slightly before eating. Serve with powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, sweet dips, maple syrup, Nutella, ice cream, or yogurt for a dessert-like snack.
