A Quick Tasty Treat

For the last few weeks, people have been raving about how genius these Uncrustables Donuts are that have been going viral on TikTok thanks to this video! However, Well Done seems to be the original source of the recipe. Are they breakfast or dessert or lunch or a snack? Maybe all four mashed up into one!

My husband thinks I’m a little odd, but I only like PB&Js that are toasted – In my opinion, the jelly and peanut butter are already really soft so I don’t want soft bread too. And these donuts are absolute perfection in my book! You can a crispy fried bread on the outside and the peanut butter and jelly get warm and good – it’s so good!

Ingredients For Uncrustable Donuts

This recipe requires minimal ingredients: Oil for frying, Uncrustables sandwiches, and cinnamon sugar. The cinnamon sugar is optional, my husband actually prefers them without, but they do give you more of that jelly donut flavor.

How To Make Donuts with Uncrustables

These donuts are really easy to make, you’ll need a few key kitchen tools to make them, but otherwise, no real skills are required!

Thaw and core the Uncrustables using a cupcake corer (I have this one and love it).
Heat vegetable oil in a Dutch oven to 375 degrees F.
Fry the sandwiches and place on a paper towel on a plate.
Toss in cinnamon sugar.

Air Fryer Cooking Method

If you prefer, you can cook these uncrustables in the air fryer. They’ll take about 7 to 8 minutes to cook. However, I tested both methods and found that the cinnamon sugar doesn’t stick very well to the air fryer version and would need to be brushed with butter.

They also took longer to cook since in most air fryers you can only cook 3 or 4 at a time. I also thought the air fried uncrustables were drier overall. So if you can fry them, do it, it’s work the extra hassle!

Rebecca’s Tips

This recipe is really easy to scale. The recipe can make 6 to 12 before needing to increase the sugar or change out the oil.
I would only cook 2 to 3 at a time since they cook really fast and you don’t want them to burn while you’re adding or flipping the others. Since they cook so fast it will only take you a couple of minutes to cook all of them even in small batches.
If you prefer, cinnamon sugar can be omitted. That actually how my husband prefers them. You don’t even have to cut the hole in the center if you prefer more of a deep-fried PB&J than a donut.
Uncrustables now come in several flavor: grape, strawberry, hazelnut, and honey. Any of these will work with this recipe!
