  • Yield: 6 -7 dozen mini Pop-Tarts 1x

Ingredients

Scale

For the Blueberry and Chia Jam Filling:

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries (or your favorite kind of berry)
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds

For the Mini Pop-Tarts and Glaze:

  • Wholly Wholesome's Traditional Rolled Pie Crust (or any rolled pie crust*)
  • 2 tsp almond milk for dabbing
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • nonpareils
  • 4-5 tsp almond milk for the glaze

For Assembly:

  • almond milk (or your favorite kind of milk)

Instructions

Blueberry and Chia Jam Filling:

  1. In a medium-sized pan, bring the blueberries and maple syrup to a low boil (just until simmering). Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 4-5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the chia seeds and cook down the mixture until it thickens to your desired consistency. Stir frequently!
  3. Once cooled, spoon the jam into a small ziploc bar or pastry bag.

Mini Pop-Tarts:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Thaw the package according to directions. Unroll the pie crust.
  3. Cut the dough into little rectangles (I used a ruler to measure out 1.5" x 2").
  4. Create a spine across the middle of each rectangle.
  5. Dab milk across the edges and middle of each rectangle.
  6. Squeeze a little jam onto one side of each rectangle.
  7. Fold each piece of dough over and seal the edges lightly.
  8. Crimp each edge with a fork and place each pastry onto a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  9. Bake for 13-15 minutes.

Glaze:

  1. Sift the powdered sugar. Slowly add 1/2 tsp of milk at a time to the sugar. You want it to be thick, but spreadable.
  2. Once the pop-tarts have completely cooled, spread the icing onto each and sprinkle with nonpareils. Let it dry for 15-20 minutes or until hard.
  3. Enjoy the Pop-Tarts in milk!

Notes

* This is the vegan kind. If you are looking for the gluten-free version, try Wholly Wholesome's Gluten-Free Pie Crust, which can be turned into a rolled dough.
