Homemade Pop Tarts!

IMG_8106

These are SO easy, and SO good, much much better than those boxed kind. They also aren’t expensive!

What’ you’ll need:

2 pie crusts (I used boxed, but you could make your own.
as many different kind of jams as you want
raw sugar & a egg (optional)

Lay out the pie crust and cut it in fours

then you’ll have to cut off some of the edges to make them square.

place a big ol’ dollop of jam towards one side.

then wet your finger and run it along the sides of the dough, this is very important, it helps it stay closed. When you’ve done that, press down the edges with a fork.

Then egg wash and sprinkle with raw sugar. WHICH I FORGOT TO DO. dang.

Bake at 350 for about 10-15 minutes, until golden brown.

Enjoy! Warning: These are quite addictive. You may eat them all. And then want more.

  1. I love it! They look delicious.

    In that same vein, I make nutella turnovers using puff pastry. Cut into squares, dollop of nutella, seal and egg wash & sugar it. Try it sometime...to die for. ;)

  2. As I read your blog post, I was thinking, "I bet that would be reallllllly good with Nutella in it!"

    It seems to be a popular response. I'll have to try it!

  3. Nutella sounds amazing, I actually thought about trying that, but I feared it may just burn instead of bake...based on a nutella muffin attempt that went awry!

    Those nutella turnovers sounds amazing though!

  11. These are not pop tarts. Pop tarts go in a toaster. And then pop out of it. Hence the name. Call them mini-fruit-pies if you must, but don't slander the name of the most perfect of foods, the deliciously full of chemicals and transfats pop tart, with this weak imitation.
