Homemade Poptarts
- 1 box refrigerated pie crust-can use the whole thing or just one crust - I just used 1 this time around
- your favorite jam or jelly (I used raspberries preserves)
ICING (completely optional but we prefer the iced poptarts anyway so why not go the whole 9 yards!!!)
- Milk
- a few tsp of Powder Sugar
- Colored jimmies
Unroll each pie crust, roll out on a floured surface and then square them off, cut them into equal size rectangles. I was able to get 5 rectangles and 1 half moon shaped poptart out of my crust. Place about 1 tsp. - 1 tbs. of jam or preserve in the center of a rectangle and spread out, stopping just before the edge.
Place another piece of dough on top and using a fork, crimp the edges together to form a tight seal.
Place all of the pop tarts onto a well greased baking sheet and cook at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until golden and crispy. Let them cool before glazing. When the pop tarts are ready to be glazed mix the sugar with enough milk to make a thick glaze, spoon it over the top of each tart and sprinkle with the colored jimmies.

Super fun! I love pop tarts too but we never buy them, being the tightwads that we are. I really should try this!
We loved it when we made these about a month ago...they are so easy and taste great. www.dunkincooking.com, come take a look at them.
these probably taste better then the real deal, great job!
Great way to save some money> I bet they taste better too!
Wow...what a great idea! I think it would be super with some brown sugar and cinnamon, and I just happen to have some of those pie crusts. Hmm...
