Ingredients:
For Homemade Poptarts:
1½ cups strawberries, chopped
4 cup sugar
1-2 Tablespoons of honey
Homemade or store bought pie dough
1 egg white (from pasteurized eggs)
1¼ cups sifted powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For icing:
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tbsp water
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Combine strawberries, sugar and honey with a splash of water into a saucepan. Heat over medium heat while stirring and mashing until filling has thickened (for 20 to 30 minutes). Allow your filling to cool completely.
- Roll your pie dough on a lightly floured surface until desired thickness is achieved.
- Cut rectangles 3″ by 4″ out to make poptarts. Roll excess dough and re-cut if necessary. You will need two rectangles to make one poptart.
- Place one row of rectanges down on baking sheet.
- Spoon approximately 1 TB of strawberry filling onto the center each rectangle, making sure to spread only slightly.
- Carefully, with a pastry brush or your finger, brush milk onto edges of dough. Lay the second rectangle over the top and press down with your fingers along the edge to close the poptarts.
- Using a fork press the back of a fork along all the edges to completely seal poptarts.
- Cut a few tiny slits in the top of each poptart.
- Bake until golden brown, for 25 to 30 minutes.
- Place poptarts on wire racks and allow to cool completely.
- To make icing, simply just combine powdered sugar and water, and you have a perfect icing.
- Frost your Homemade poptarts and top with sprinkles if desired and enjoy!
