Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Fry the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer the cooked bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.

Step 5
Place the buttered halves of the bread on a baking sheet, cut side up, and toast them in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes or until golden and lightly crisp.

Remove the bread from the oven and spread the creamy peanut butter evenly over the bottom half of the toasted loaf.
Step 7
Spread the grape jelly evenly over the peanut butter layer.
Step 8
Arrange the crispy bacon slices in an even layer over the jelly.
Step 9
Place the top half of the toasted loaf over the bacon to complete the sandwich.

Wrap the entire sandwich loaf in aluminum foil and place it in the oven. Bake for 10 minutes to warm the sandwich through and meld the flavors.

Serve warm and enjoy the rich, indulgent goodness of the Fool's Gold Loaf Sandwich!
