These vegan peanut butter, jelly, chocolate and banana quesadillas are a delicious, and easy to make treat.
A peanut butter and jelly sandwich is as American as apple pie, and then some more. So this British Sandwich Week what better than a jazzed up good old PB&J sandwich?
I’ve filled a wrap with a generous dollop peanut butter, blueberry jam (or jelly depending what side of the Atlantic you are), a sliced banana and then a few squares of dark chocolate, before toasting to melt the peanut butter and chocolate to gooey perfection. A sandwich that Elvis would have been pleased to eat!
Once the quesadillas are cooked, carefully cut in half, stack and serve with fresh berries and a dusting of icing sugar, as well as a glass of milk for that full American style snack experience.
Skippy smooth peanut butter is velvety smooth, and almost silky once melted; if you prefer some more texture then there is also a crunchy version.
Peanut butter, jelly, chocolate and banana quesadillas
Ingredients
- 2 wraps
- 2 tbs smooth peanut butter
- 2 tsp heaped blueberry jam

Instructions
- Spread the peanut butter onto one half of each of the wraps, top with the jam, banana and chocolate. Fold the wrap over and lightly press.

These look tasty and just a little bit wrong, in a good way.
Helen
No, they are all right, so very right. ;-)
Camilla
My daughter and I will definitely be trying this! We already do the banana and chocolate but have never thought to add peanut butter or jam!:-)
Helen
It was awesomely good but fairly messy to eat!
Jo of Jo's Kitchen
These look fabulous Helen! Perfect for a naughty treat. I want one now!
Helen
We really really enjoyed them.
Kim @ Three Olives Branch
I am all about the filling of any type of sandwich, so having a greater filling-to-bread ratio is right up my alley!
Helen
I am so with you there – I’d rather save both the space and the calories for a lovely filling.
Trish
oooooh YUM! British sandwich week looks GOOD! :)
Helen
It is an excuse for indulgence certainly!
Kate | The Veg Space
Oh my word, those look too good Helen – what a fab idea. Peanut butter is such a great protein source for veggies and vegans, so I would purely be thinking of my health, of course.
Helen
Of course – When I spoon PB directly from the jar I say it is for my health.
Melissa
My kids would go crazy over these (if I didn’t eat it all myself before it made it to the table)! It’s hard to beat chocolate, peanut butter, and berries.
Helen
Absolutely. But this makes a hot PB sauce!
Whitney @WhittyPaleo
Omg this is such a treat and the pictures are gorgeous! Thanks for the recipe!
Helen
Thanks Whitney, a super simple, but oh so good treat.

What a fabulous way to elevate pb and jelly!
Helen
I need to make it again to “check” it really was OK!
Dini @ The Flavor Bender
This looks INSANELY good!! :D I never liked PBJ until I moved to the US (My husband got me hooked on it) and now I can’t get enough of it! Love the addition of Chocolate and Banana too – I can see myself stuffing my face with this every morning if I am allowed to!
Helen
I loved melted peanut butter, it makes the most amazing sauce. I am sure this is healthy – it does contain fruit.
Sarah Bailey
Oh my goodness how amazing do these sound – the look like they would just melt in your mouth. x
Helen
They have a habit of disappearing rather quickly Sarah.

I love skippy peanut butter- it was the only brand I could get when I lived in Singapore and it’s delicious!
Helen
We loved it, it is so so velvet smooth
Rhian Westbury
I’m really not a fan of banana but peanut butter and jelly are a great mixture x
Helen
It would be just as excellent minus the banana!
Molly Kumar
OMG, they look Awesome!!! I love Quesadilla ….I can eat them forever ;) and the combination of chocolate, peanut butter, jelly n fruit is just divine.
Helen
They were rather morish! A perfect snack.
Rachel
If the peanut butter leaves the tub it is usually straight off the spoon into my mouth, these look just absolutely divine and I am sure they taste even better!
Helen
You and me both Rachel, it is the best way to eat peanut butter!
Life as Mum
Oh my… that looks sooo delicious! I wouldn’t mind trying it myself
Helen
We loved it, indulgent, but really not that bad for you.
Fashion and Style Police
I am going to try this. I use peanut butter on my toast and I love it.
Helen
Slightly melted runny PB is the best!
Bintu | Recipes From A Pantry
Oh that oozey melty peanut butter – I need some of these right now.
Helen
I am with you on the melted PB. So so good.
Liz Mays
Oh these are yummy! What a neat idea. I think they would be perfect for after school snacks.
Helen
They would be perfect, quick to pull together and also a bit special.
Amy Hunt
*salivates* They look gorgeous, I have pancakes regularly and can’t really eat quesadias (they usually have gluten in them) but I could move the recipe onto a gluten free version! Thanks for sharing!
Helen
This would be super easy to make with a GFwrap.
Ali
These look like such fun! A perfect little treat. My daughter would absolutely adore these.
Helen
we really did enjoy them. I do hope you make them.
Cassandra Mayers
they actually look really good. Would you believe me if I told you Ive never had peanut butter? I hate Peanuts so always figured I would hate the butter to but its the texture of the nute i hate so maybe i will like it.
Helen
I think you should give peanut butter a go then. This Skippy one is super smooth.
WhatLauraLoves

Ana De- Jesus
I never thought of creating sweet quesadillas but it makes complete sense and all the ingredients would fuse together perfectly. I love how you thought outside the box!
Helen
I am all about mixing it up!

Helen
We did rather enjoy them, and possibly might have made them again since.
Michelle @ Greedy Gourmet
Oooh, this looks devilishly delicious!

It did rather warrant another go at them, just because!
