When you make toast with peanut butter do you butter the toast first?
-
Lightly butter the bread before toasting. That'll help brown the surface more deliciously.
Peanut butter after toasted.
What if it starts a fire? Need an answer soonish!

Bread is coarse and crumbly. Jam is gooey and wet. Surely butter makes it less likely for the jam to stay on. I always assumed it was just for flavour. My grandma used to do butter toast with just a sprinkle of sugar on top, so I never even considered that butter was there for a functional purpose.
Butter on peanut butter is just weird, though, unless you're buttering before toasting. But then peanut butter is a recent import here, so maybe it's an old fashioned thing in the places that cultural imperialisted peanut puree unto us. Who's to say.
I thought that as well, but I found that using butter on bread with homemade jam, the butter acts as a consistency to make it so it doesn't slide all over the slice. when you do it without it just rolls

I read this like "giving a toast" and was so thoroughly confused...
-
I disagree! The butter greatly enhances the flavor moreso than keeping the jam on. If anything it allows the jam to slide off more easily.

Get a load of Mr Fancypants over here, with his multiple kinds of butter. Two toppings on one toast?? I want that life.
One for each side of the toast.

I must be getting to that age where I no longer understand references in the wild.

He grew up excruciatingly poor, and so, at the beginning of the story, his dreams were very humble things like eating toast with decent toppings and hugging a girl at least once before he died. He dreams bigger and bigger as things go on, but it always stays comically simple because he's a simple kind of guy.

His current stated dream is to have sex and the one person that wants to do it with him might have just lost control of her body as the devil within her reattained her full power. But his real dream (he is just too foolish to realize it) is to have a chosen family, which he has also been intentionally boxed out of a few times over now. So tragic. Much sad. ;(

Butter, peanut butter, hot honey, flaky sea salt.

I think you probably need a toaster oven to do this

I initially thought you meant do you put peanut butter on the bread first before you toast it
I can't describe the emotions I was feeling

I didn't realize there was people that put butter on their toast before putting peanut butter on. Like, I can see it with jam because the intent is for the butter to hold the jam on. But peanut butter is already sticky, so I never really thought of it.

???
butter, famously the stuff used to lubricate fat children who have become stuck in another object
we don't use a toxic, heart attack causing substance made with cruelty, violence, and atrocity to make the jam stick. we do it because it's an addictive substance, and the fat it adds makes things taste good.

It depends entirely on the jelly/ jam and consistency of such. Different temperatures will have different results as well. It pretty much comes down to how wet your spread is.

If you use real aka crunchy peanut butter rather than smooth heavily processed, the butter makes it easier to spread

I butter the pan when I toast my bread. After that I normally just use whatever topping of the day (peanut butter, jam, etc). I've found that pan toasting is really the only way to get your toast perfect. Toaster ovens just end up wasting counter space you could otherwise use for something you can't achieve with a pan

What kind of jam are you making? My partner recently got into making blackberry jam and we dont have issues with liquidity. Maybe the jam needs to be dehydrated more before it's canned?

It's best to toast buttered bread while taking a bath. That way you can quickly extinguish any fires.

You can make smooth peanut butter without heavily processing it. Just leave it in the blender a little longer.

That was certainly part of what I was feeling
