Ingredients

6 pieces milk bread or Texas toast bread
4 tablespoon smooth peanut butter
2 large eggs
1 cup vegetable oil or any neutral oil

Toppings:

2 tablespoon butter or as needed
sweetened condensed milk as needed

Instructions

Spread a thin, even layer of peanut butter on two slices of bread, covering from edge to edge. Leave the third slice plain.
Stack the two peanut-buttered slices together with the peanut butter sides facing up. Place the plain slice on top and gently press to adhere the layers. Repeat with the remaining sandwich.
Use a bread knife to slice off the crusts, creating neat squares.
In a large shallow bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Lightly coat each sandwich in the egg mixture, avoid overcoating, or it will become too soft to handle.
Stand the coated sandwiches upright on a plate while preparing the next steps.
Heat vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over low-medium heat, around 250-300ºF. Fry each sandwich on all sides until golden brown - about 1-2 minutes on the wide sides and 30 seconds on the edges. Serve hot with butter and condensed milk.
