PB and J Rolls from Lamplight Lounge – GEEK EATS Disney Recipes

The Lamplight Lounge at Disney California Adventure is a wonderful place to stop for a snack and a beverage or a full meal with those who are dear for you. Throughout the Lamplight Lounge, there are wonderful details from the worlds of Pixar and the animators who created them. It also has some wonderful dishes on the menus (potato skins!), wonderful drinks, and is a wonderful place to spend some time relaxing while at Disney California Adventure.

One of the popular dishes for kids (or kids at heart?) is the PB and J Rolls. This is a play on the classic peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a bit of a sushi inspiration! Today, Disney is sharing this recipe so that it can be made around the globe by fans wanting to recreate some Disney magic in their own kitchen. A video was also created by the Disney Youth Education Series team for how to make the PB and J Rolls.

PB and J Rolls from Lamplight Lounge – GEEK EATS Disney Recipes

Ingredients

PEANUT BUTTER ROLLS

• 8 slices wheat bread
• 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter, divided

JELLY DRIZZLE

• 3/4 cup strawberry or grape jelly

Instructions

For peanut butter rolls: 

1. Cut crusts off bread. Flatten bread with rolling pin until bread can bind after being rolled. 
2. Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons of peanut butter evenly on each slice of flattened bread, leaving small boarder on all sides – the peanut butter will spread as you roll.
3. Starting with long side of bread, gently roll up each bread slice into spiral. Cut each roll into 4 even pieces.
4. Place 8 pieces of rollups onto each plate, seam-side down.

For jelly drizzle: 

1. Place plastic quart-size freezer bag into small cup, folding back first few inches of bag over top of cup. Spoon jelly into bag, gently shaking bag to move jelly to bottom of bag. (Note: If jelly is too thick to drizzle, add small amount of warm water to jelly in small bowl and mix to desired consistency before adding to bag).
2. Once filled, lift bag from cup and squeeze out excess air from bag and seal bag with a few twists to top of bag. Cut bottom corner of bag with scissors.
3. Holding right below the twisted top of bag with one hand and guiding with free hand, gently squeeze to drizzle jelly over each peanut butter roll with zigzag motion.

Cook’s Note: A squeezable bottle of jelly is an easy option. Simply squeeze, in zigzag motion, desired amount of jelly over each peanut butter roll.
