Peanut Butter Jelly Banana Potato Chip Toast

This TikTok viral snack recipe is indulgent, crunchy and perfectly balanced between the salty and sweet flavors. It is simple and works well as a snack, sweet treat, mid night craving, dessert or a cheat treat for when you want a little bit of everything.

I saw this video first on this creators account (hey Wayne & Nancy!) on TikTok and was immediately sold and wanted to make it. However I wanted to try it with my own twist and it was so good which led me to make another and now I made a whole recipe video and am sharing this blog with you so you can hopefully make it too. It is not a complicated recipe and comes together very simply but make sure to use your favorite components in order for you to enjoy it to the maximum. There are a few key points to keep in mind when making this recipe so let us get to it. Also going forward I will be referring to peanut butter jelly as PBJ.

Why you’ll love this PBJ Banana Potato Chip Toast?

Its a simple snack to make with little effort.
You don’t need anything fancy to make this treat, you might already have most of the ingredients needed.
The salty sweet combination of flavors is well balanced and perfect for those who do not like very sweet treats.
The crunch is very satisfying and pairs well the with mashed banana and saucy jelly.

Ingredients you’ll need to make this toast:

You don’t need a lot to make this treat, but I would suggest you use your favorite brands in order to enjoy this. I have used a homemade bread slice but any sourdough or crusty bread would be perfect here. You will need jam aka jelly, I have used a strawberry jam. Crunchy peanut butter is essential with salted potato chips. I have also used a banana and buttered my bread before toasting.

Substitutes and variations:

Bread – use any crusty bread you can get your hands on. If you must, you can use slice bread which I have also done in desperation, I have made this too many times to admit.
Jam – strawberry is the best in my opinion but I have tried it with blueberry and raspberry as well and it works perfectly.
Peanut butter – I always eat crunchy so I always recommend that. But if you have smooth you can use that, I wouldn’t suggest using any other – unless you’ve got a roasted almond butter which will also work.
Potato chips – they must be salted and must be wavy, I’ve noticed the potato chips without waves crush easily into the peanut butter making it mushy.
Banana – this is my addition to the original trend but I think it is a game changer and you must give it a go, we need a small banana or half a large banana.

Equipment you’ll need to make this toast:

A toaster or pan to toast the buttered bread, this is essential as we need the bread toasted. This is a toast recipe. Don’t fight with me about it. To mix the peanut butter into the chips you need a bowl and spatula. Also you could microwave the peanut butter if it is not runny. A butter knife to help spread the jelly and butter. A fork to mash the banana too.

Serving options:

This is BEST served as soon as it is made. Do not waste any time as the toast will not stay crunchy since the moisture from the banana will make the toast soggy so once you make it, cut it into half and serve. It is perfect with a cup of tea or glass of milk. My mother actually added a scoop of vanilla ice cream to this and relished it so do what you will with this information.
