    Cute post! Sorry to hear that you got so sick off that bad peanut butter. My favorite is raw organic almond butter. I could just get a spoon and eat the entire jar. Have not tried making my own. I can see that these would be dangerous…so I will be good and pass. Although I have had an itch to develop a new oatmeal cookie recipe. Maybe soon!

      It was actually the raw organic peanut butter. I thought because it was organic I was safe.

    You are sooo smart to make your own! I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with a big glass of ice cold milk. YUM! The peanut butter and jelly bars look delish!

      Susan, I thought of you while making the peanut butter. While my issue was not as bad as yours, it was still very scary. I knew I would be baking with this batch, but when I make it again, I plan to roast the nuts before they go into the Cuisinart, that way I know there will be no worry over contaminants, and roasting will intensify the flavor. I hope you make this; it is a 5-minute project. Thanks for visiting.

    These look amazing Madonna! So glad you love the jam as much as we do. You certainly found a wonderful use for both the jam and the peanut butter. Yes, I can certainly see that these could be dangerous!

    Wow, I am in LOVE with this post! One time, I went to a WinCo Foods and “made” my own fresh peanut butter there, and it was SO dang good. But, I live too far away from one to go regularly. I never realized I could make my own peanut butter at home! Then, the recipe for the bars sounds absolutely fantastic! I hate sandwiches in general, so PB&J bars never strike my fancy since I automatically associate them with sandwiches, but you had me drooling by the end of this post, and convinced that I might actually like PB&J bars 😉 Thanks for sharing and commenting on my blog as well!

      If you have a food processor you can make pb. If you have a microwave you can make the jam. 2 to 3 minutes to make the pb – about 6 or 7 minutes for the jam not counting the 20 minutes it sits before microwaving. The freshness of it is shocking. I hope you will give it a try.

    Hi Madonna, oh my , how awful on being sick for so long from the recalled peanut butter. What an ordeal!! I have made peanut butter, in the past, and always make my own jam. Your bars look wonderful and would be such a treat!

    Oh, my goodness! I’m so glad you recovered. You’ve convinced me to make my own peanut butter. An informative, must-read post! I’m pinning.

      Thank you Michael. It was not as bad as Susan’s situation, but definitely not pleasant. As for making our own peanut butter, it is so easy, I can’t believe it took me so long.

      Thank you Ginger. Try making the jam and peanut butter. It is ridiculously easy. The freshness of it just kicks up the flavor.

    These look delicious, I love peanut butter and jam together, especially if they are both home made. I found your blog on Melt in your Mouth Monday’s over at Make Ahead Meals for Busy Moms.
