Having a yummy lunch for your children is a must because we have to feed our kids.

Instead of skipping out on buying these tasty sandwiches, you can make them at home for a fraction of the cost and add them to your meal plan. Preparing the Make-Ahead Homemade Uncrustables Freezer Meal Lunches is fun and straightforward.

What You Will Need to Prepare the Make-Ahead Homemade Uncrustables
You are only going to need a few ingredients to create the Make-Ahead Homemade Uncrustables. You can easily prepare these crustless sandwiches within minutes using these ingredients:
- Sandwich Bread. Choose your favorite brand and style of sandwich bread. You may have a specific preference when it comes to the type of bread you give to your children. You can also make your own bread.
- Peanut Butter. Use your favorite peanut butter to spread on the sandwich.
- Jam or Jelly. Add jelly or jam in a flavor that your children like the most to complete the sandwich before turning it into an uncrustable.
You will need to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (just like when I freeze them for later). Once you make the sandwiches, you will use crimping sandwich cutters to eliminate the crust and seal the bread, transforming each sandwich into an uncrustable. Check out my must-have kitchen supplies.
How to Store and Freeze the Homemade Uncrustables
After preparing the Make-Ahead Homemade Uncrustables Freezer Meal Lunches, wrap them individually in plastic wrap and place them in a container or bag. You can also lay them out on a tray in the freezer, then when they are frozen, you can move them into a freezer bag to store them. Make sure the plastic wrap fully covers the uncrustables and is tightly packaged. When one of your children wants to eat one of the uncrustables for lunch or snack, they can pull one out from the freezer bag, allow it to thaw for about 30 minutes, and then bite right into it. Easy for mama to feed a big family!
Different Variations of the Make-Ahead Homemade Uncrustables
When preparing the Make-Ahead Homemade Uncrustables, there are tons of flavor combinations to choose from. This recipe provides simple instructions on making uncrustables using peanut butter and jam or jelly, but you can always switch up the ingredients used on your sandwich bread. For example, you may want to use Nutella with peanut butter. You can also try making yeast-free bread or honey wheat bread. We also have recipes for peach butter and apple butter instead of jelly. The possibilities are endless! Everyone can have their favorite.
Making lunch doesn’t have to be hard, especially if you make it ahead of time you can even make desserts and snacks like cookies ahead of time.
