If you’re craving a nostalgic snack that evokes memories of childhood lunches, why not try your hand at making Homemade Uncrustables? This delightful treat is not only simple to prepare but also allows for a personal touch with your choice of fillings.

To get started, you'll need soft, crustless bread – white, wholemeal, or even gluten-free if you prefer. Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut out circles from the slices of bread. Spread a generous layer of your favourite filling on one half; classic options include peanut butter and jam, Nutella, or perhaps a savoury option like cream cheese and cucumber. Top it with another bread circle and press the edges firmly to seal. For an extra touch, you can crimp the edges with a fork, ensuring no filling escapes.

Once assembled, these little parcels can be enjoyed immediately, or you can pop them in the freezer for a quick snack at a later date. Homemade Uncrustables are an ideal solution for packed lunches, picnics, or a simple afternoon treat, combining convenience with the warmth of home cooking.
