How to Make It

1. Step
In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the strawberries, granulated sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Cook until the berries have started to break down into a thick sauce, 10–15 minutes.
2. Step
Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet or deep pan over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). To test the oil temperature, add a couple drops of pancake batter; if it sizzles immediately, the oil is hot enough.
3. Step
Spread the peanut butter over 2 slices of bread. Spread the jelly over the remaining 2 slices of bread. Sandwich the peanut butter and jelly halves together.
4. Step
Coat each sandwich in the pancake batter. Carefully place in the hot oil and fry for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain.
5. Step
Cut the sandwiches in half on the diagonal. Place on a plate, pour the strawberry syrup on top, and dust with powdered sugar.
6. Step
Enjoy!
