Homemade and Healthy Peanut Butter and Jelly Toast
Homemade Peanut Butter and Jelly Toast.
Classic peanut butter and jelly reimagined with nutritious homemade ingredients. The creamy peanut butter is spread over toasted bread and topped with a 3-ingredient strawberry chia jam. If you love peanut butter and jelly but are looking for a healthy version that still hits the spot, this recipe is a must try!
5 Minute Strawberry Chia Jam
This 5 minute strawberry chia jam only requires 3 ingredients – strawberries, chia seeds, and maple syrup or agave. If you don’t like strawberries, feel free to substitute with blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or even grapes. I use frozen strawberries out of convenience, but also because – fun fact – frozen produce is actually fresher than non-frozen produce!
Creamy Homemade Peanut Butter
This creamy peanut butter is so easy and keeps for a few weeks in the fridge. If you’re looking for ultra creamy peanut butter, you can add oat milk. This will initially make the mixture very liquidy, but once it’s refrigerated it will start to solidify.

- Toast your bread and top with the peanut butter and strawberry chia jam.
