Homemade Strawberry Pop Tarts
These are the Easiest Homemade Strawberry Pop Tarts you could make! Made with pie crust, filled with strawberry jam, and topped with a vanilla icing and sprinkles!
Servings: 9 pop tarts
Ingredients
- 1 package store bought pie crust two crusts total
- 3/4 cup strawberry jam
- sprinkles optional
Pop tart glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk or heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out each pie crust with a rolling pin to a 1/8 inch thickness. Cut each pie crusts into 2x3 inch rectangles and place 9 on prepared baking sheet.
- Add 1 tablespoon of jam to the center of each and then top with a pie crust rectangle. Use a fork to crimp the edges of all 4 sides of the pop tarts. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the pop tarts are a light golden brown color. Transfer to a cooling rack to cool.
- In the meantime, you can make the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. If the icing becomes too thick, add a few drops of water. Spoon the glaze over each pop tart and add sprinkles. You can enjoy immediately or let sit for 20 minutes to let the glaze set.
Notes
Recipe Tips:
- To make the brown sugar filling simply mix together 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 2 1/4 teaspoons of cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon of flour.
- Store leftover pop tarts in an airtight container or ziplock bag and place in a cool area on the counter. They will last up to 3-4 days but are always better fresh.
