Easy HOMEMADE  POP TARTS!

Stuffed with jam, topped with lemon, these comforting & cute pop tarts are irresistibly good!

You’ll never wish for the store-bought versions again!

INGREDIENTS

- – 125 gms Wholewheat flour – 125 gms All purpose flour – 125 gms Butter, chilled, cut into cubes I used salted butter – 1 tsp Castor sugar / powdered sugar – 5-6 tbsp Chilled Water – 2-3 tbsp Strawberry jam Lemon glaze – 1 tbsp Lemon juice – 3-4 tbsp A handful of ice – Sprinkles, Optional

STEP 1

Form the simple dough with flour, sugar & butter. Cling wrap & chill for at least an hour!

STEP 2

Roll out the dough on a floured surface, cutting rough rectangles of about 2.5" x 3.5"

These could be smaller or bigger. Don't worry about trying to cut perfect rectangles!

STEP 3

Spoon 1.5 tsps of jam in the center of half of the rectangles. Spread it out a bit, leaving about 1/2" of the edges!

STEP 4

Place the non jam rectangle on top. Seal the edges with your fingertips & then use a fork to make a pattern around each tart. This helps to seal the edges better!

STEP 5

Prick each filled rectangles 4-6 times with a toothpick. Chill them for 20-30 mins or freeze for 15 mins! 

STEP 6

Bake the chilled/frozen tarts for 20-25 mins until lightly golden brown on top.  The filling may leak out, but don't worry, you can simply use a knife to cut it out!

STEP 7

Once the pop tarts are ready, let them cool completely. Drizzle over some glaze & immediately top with sprinkles, if using.

serve & enjoy!
