homeade pop tarts

start with a pie crust; store bought or here is a recipe:

Combine the 1cup flour, 1teaspoon salt, and 1teaspoon sugar in a bowl. Add the 1cup cubed butter and cut into the dry ingredients with a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingers. Continue until the mixture resembles coarse sand and the butter is the size of small peas. Add the cold water a tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together into a ball. Divide into two and form each into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

Next make your preserves:

▢ 2 cups (335 grams) sliced strawberries , fresh or frozen

▢ 1 tablespoon lemon juice

▢ 1 tablespoon lemon zest

▢ ⅔ cup (130 grams) granulated sugar

▢ ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Here is your pop tart recipe:

▢ 1 cup (340 grams) strawberry preserves , recipe above, or use store-bought

▢ double pie crust , recipe above, or use store-bought

▢ 1 cup (113 grams) powdered sugar

▢ 1-2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk

▢ Rainbow sprinkles (optional)

Preheat 375°.

Roll out and cut your pie crust into squares/rectangles, add your cooled down preserves, add a top piece of pie crust, push the ends together with a fork to avoid the preserves from coming out, bake 25-30mins, let cool on a wire rack, top with a powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream mixture, add sprinkles!
