Fluffernutter Baked Oatmeal

With this fluffernutter baked oatmeal, you can relive the peanut butter and marshmallow covered dreams of your childhood!

Some kids live on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Without it, some may not have survived. In elementary school, students who forgot their lunch money received a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch, which I always considered to be a threat. Jelly was the thing that could ruin my peanut butter sandwich. No, thank you. And grape jelly?!? I still can’t quite understand that one.

Or maybe that was just what I told my parents so they would allow me to add some marshmallow to my sandwiches…

As an adult, I finally enjoy some fresh raspberry jelly- but I am so glad I didn’t eat jelly as a child. Otherwise, I may never know the joy of creamy peanut butter layered with sweet and sticky marshmallow fluff. And that is a match made in heaven!

What is fluffernutter?

Fluffernutter refers to a peanut butter and marshmallow sandwich, typically made with white bread. Maybe not the healthiest meal, but a childhood staple and a great alternative for kids who do not like jelly.

Why is it called fluffernutter?

The PB & M sandwich was first created in the early 1900s; however, the term was not used until 1960. An advertising agency created the name as a way to market the sweet sandwich. Also, marshmallow creme is sometimes referred to as fluff.
