Spread an even layer of the peanut butter and jam mixture over each flattened slice of bread, leaving a small border around the edges. Don't overfill, or it will be difficult to roll.

Starting from one end, carefully roll up each slice of bread tightly into a log. Once rolled, gently press the seam to seal it.

Place the rolled bread logs on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This chilling time helps the rolls firm up, making them easier to slice and preventing them from unrolling.

Once chilled, remove the rolls from the refrigerator. Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 1-inch thick 'bites'. Arrange on a serving platter and enjoy your healthy midnight snack!
