Homemade Uncrustables

Looking for easy lunch ideas? I have a great list of ideas for you here.
My son has been a huge fan of Nutella Uncrustables slightly toasted. These sandwiches you see in my pictures were made by my 12 year old son, so this is a great recipe for kids!

Ingredients:
- Soft bread
- Fillings of choice
Supplies:
- Cup
- Toaster (optional)
- Freezer bags (optional)
Instructions:
Begin by placing a couple of tablespoons of your desired filling in the center of a piece of bread. We use simple white bread because it is very soft, making it the easiest to seal.
Just like a traditional sandwich, place another slice of bread on top.
Turn a regular kitchen cup upside down and use it to cut the crust of the sandwich off. Press gently and twist the cup back and forth until it pushes all the way through the bread. During this process, the edges of the bread become sealed together!
Filling Ideas
- Peanut butter and jelly (who doesn’t love a classic pb&j sandwich?
- Jams of any flavor
- Peanut butter and honey
- Cream cheese and jelly
- Peanut butter and banana
Optional idea: we like to gently toast our Uncrustable sandwiches! Especially if we’re using Nutella! Of course, you can skip this step and start enjoying your crustless sandwiches right away.
Freezer Instructions
Place the sandwiches in a freezer bag with as much air removed as possible. Freeze them for up to 3 months.
Let the sandwiches thaw before eating or toasting.
