A simple and delightful recipe for making gluten-free pop tarts at home.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1/2 cup fruit jam or filling of choice
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Powdered sugar (for icing, optional)
  • Milk (for icing, optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix the gluten-free flour, sugar, and salt.
  2. Add the chilled butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually add cold water until the dough comes together.
  4. Divide the dough into two balls, flatten them into disks, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  6. Roll out one disk of dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick.
  7. Cut the dough into rectangles and place half of them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Place a spoonful of jam in the center of each rectangle.
  9. Top with another rectangle of dough and seal the edges with a fork.
  10. Brush the tops with beaten egg and make a few slits for steam to escape.
  11. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  12. Let cool before icing with a mixture of powdered sugar and milk, if desired.
