Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices of white bread or whole wheat, Texas toast
  • 4 tablespoons butter softened
  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • ½ cup jelly any flavor
  • Optional: ¼ cup chocolate chips or marshmallows for extra filling

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Bread:
  • Butter one side of each slice of bread. This will help the bread crisp up while cooking.
  • Assemble the Pudgy Pie:
  • Place a slice of bread, buttered side down, into the pie iron. Spread a tablespoon of peanut butter and a tablespoon of jelly on the unbuttered side. Add chocolate chips or marshmallows if desired. Top with another slice of bread, buttered side up.
  • Cook the Pudgy Pie:
  • Close the pie iron securely and place it over a campfire or grill. Cook for 3-5 minutes on each side, checking for a golden brown, crispy exterior. The filling should be warm and gooey.
  • Serve the Pudgy Pie:
  • Carefully remove the pudgy pie from the iron and let it cool for a minute before serving. Enjoy it warm for the best experience!
