Uncrustable Donuts

July 2, 2021

Deep-fried Uncrustable Donuts are a fun twist on traditional peanut butter & jelly sandwiches. Delicious, melty, gooey, homemade donut treats that are done in less than a minute! Use your favorite flavor of Uncrustables for this TikTok-inspired recipe!

How to Make Uncrustable Donuts

Uncrustable Donuts

This is the easiest jelly donut recipe you can possibly make! You can make these donuts in a fraction of the time that it would take for a traditional dough to rise — making them just the thing for a weekday morning, lazy weekend brunch, or after-dinner dessert.

Start with freezer-aisle favorite Uncrustables. Pick any flavor you like! For this Uncrustable Donut recipe, we use the PB&J, but just imagine how amazing the Nutella version would be! Are they breakfast or dessert or lunch or a snack? Maybe all four mashed up into one!

Uncrustable Donut Flavors:

  • Grape – filled with grape jelly and fresh-roasted peanut butter.
  • Chocolate – filled with creamy chocolate-flavored hazelnut spread.
  • Strawberry – filled with strawberry jam and fresh-roasted peanut butter.
  • Honey – filled with honey spread and peanut butter.
Uncrustable Donuts Ingredients

You will need oil, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and your sandwich flavor of choice. The cinnamon sugar is optional, but they do give you more of that jelly donut flavor.

Fried Uncrustable Donuts

Add the oil to a dutch oven and set over medium heat on the stovetop. Wait about five minutes for the oil to reach 375-400F, where the oil looks to be shimmering and dancing. While waiting for the oil to come to temperature, remove the Uncrustables from their packaging.

How to Fry Uncrustables

When the oil is ready add 3-4 at a time and brown on each side, less than a minute, using a spider strainer to flip each sandwich. Remove the sandwiches from the oil to a paper towel-lined plate. 

Fried Uncrustables Dipped in Sugar

Uncrustable Donuts in Cinnamon Sugar

In a large bowl, whisk together the cinnamon and sugar. While the sandwiches are still warm, one at a time, swirl in the cinnamon-sugar mixture on all sides.

Helpful Tip: You can remove the center using a small circle cookie cutter if going for a “jelly-filled donut”. Place the cutter in the middle of the Uncrustables and press down to make the doughnut hole. We like to think of this as a homemade fair food. We LOVE exploring the food trucks at the fair each year!
