I grew up on this recipe! Talk about comfort food
I will admit I used to use more than 2 slices of bacon. Nowadays, I use Hormels bacon bits. Thanks for posting so others can enjoy.

I heard about this combination years ago, but today was the first time I've tried it. It is pretty good. The richness of the peanut butter kind of mellows the saltiness of the bacon. Between the sticky peanut butter, the crunchy toast, and the salty bacon, I did finded I needed to drink a lot of liquid to wash this down. I spread the other piece of bread with mayonnaise and chili sauce.

I love this with 7-grain bread, creamy peanut butter, and super crispy bacon. I have to spread the peanut butter while the toast is warm in order to get the perfect melted creaminess to constrast the texture of the grainy bread and crispy bacon. Eat it while it is warm and enjoy!

Our family adopted this recipe from an appetizer our mom used to make. She would take a good quality white bread and cut it into rounds using a shotglass. Then she would toast them under broiler to get croutons. Next step was spread the bread with peanut butter, then top with crispy crumbled bacon. That was haute cuisine a la 1960's. But the easy way to do it is to toast whole slices of bread, and make as told in this recipe. Tastes the same either way. I vote lazy. I have 5 siblings, and we all love to make this sandwich. Next generation is being indoctrinated as we speak. But the author forgot a key point. This sandwhich must be served with an ice cold glass of milk. Pure heaven and a taste from my childhood. A Proustian moment, if you will.

My dad used to make these sandwiches for me, only he added jelly to the PB & bacon. I loved them. When I was in high school, a boy saw me eating this & thought it was gross. He tried a bite, though, and every time I brought one after that, he BEGGED for half of it!

I've eaten these for a couple of years now and I thought at first it sounded weird. To my surprise I loved it, but I don't toast the bread and I definitely have at least 3 slices of very crispy bacon. I then smash the sandwich together to crack up the bacon. It is sooo good! Not healthy, but yummy for sure!

This has got to be the greatest! I love this sandwich with white bread toasted, a little softened butter (instead of the mayonnaise), real crispy bacon - at least 4 slices, peanut butter -either kind but it has to be warm! It is so wonderful and comforting. This takes me back to my childhood! Thank you so much for posting. Those of you who have not tasted this, take a chance, it will be so worth your while. Diane

I've been eating this since I was a little girl. I tried getting my kids to eat it, but they never joined me in my love for PB&B. Now, I've started working on my grandchildren....I'm still getting that look that says that I've just grown a second head when I try to feed it to them...oh well....some day they'll see the light....just make sure the toast is still warm when you spread the peanut butter on so it gets gooey before you lay the bacon on it....these are the best!!!!
