Ingredients

  • 1 French Bread package Pillsbury
  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • ½ cup jelly
  • optional- powdered sugar to garnish

Instructions

  • Heat 3-4 cups corn, canola, vegetable, or other high-heat oil to 350 degrees in a tall pot (I like to use my spaghetti pot).
  • Unroll french bread dough and separate into 20 small pieces (using a pizza slicer is the easiest way to do this quickly, but you can tear off bits as well).
  • Spread a little peanut butter and jelly in the middle of each piece.
  • Roll pieces into a ball shape, keeping peanut butter and jelly in the middle.
  • Add in groups of 4-5 to the oil and heat until crispy golden brown, about 5 minutes (if it takes longer, your oil is not hot enough- if it goes faster, your oil is too hot.)
  • Remove and place on paper towel to shake off excess oil.
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.
  • Enjoy!
