Recipe features

  • An easy kid-friendly recipe
  • Delicious as an afternoon snack or even as dessert

Ingredient notes

Bread – your favorite sandwich bread

Almond butter – I used creamy, but crunchy would work too

Nutella – either store bought or homemade Nutella (my homemade recipe is only 2 ingredients!)

Step-by-step instructions

Step 1: Butter the bread. You’re going to prep this sandwich similarly to how you’d prep a grilled cheese, which starts by buttering one side of each slice of bread.

Step 2: Add the almond butter. Spread almond butter on one slice of bread, and Nutella on the other, then pan fry the sandwich over medium heat for 2 minutes on the first side, and 1 minute on the second until it’s golden brown on both sides.

Expert tips

  • Use whipped butter, or soften the butter beforehand so it’s easier to spread
  • Can use creamy OR crunchy almond butter
  • Don’t love Nutella? Try using jelly/jam instead!
