Taylor Swift Pop Tart Recipe

Homemade Fruity Pop Tarts offer a homemade taste experience through their buttery flaky crust and their sweet fruity filling which you can make from scratch. The tasty pastries become easy to customize with your preferred jam selection before receiving a light vanilla glaze finish. These homemade treats serve as a fresh alternative to the classic breakfast pastry and work well for snacks and baking activities. The simple combination of basic ingredients and minimal work produces golden-brown pop tarts which taste better than store-bought versions.

Ingredients

• 1 cup of all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup of unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon of salt
• 3-4 tablespoons of cold water
• 1/2 cup of fruit jam (your choice)
• 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
• 1/2 cup of powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon of milk
• 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Directions

1. Begin by heating your oven to 375°F (190°C) while preparing a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. A mixing bowl contains all-purpose flour together with cubed butter and granulated sugar and salt.
3. Mix the ingredients using a fork or pastry cutter until they resemble coarse crumbs. The dough requires cold water addition through gradual steps of one tablespoon at a time until it forms a ball which remains moist but avoids stickiness.
4. The dough should be divided into two parts which you should roll out to 1/8-inch thickness on a floured surface. Cut the rolled dough into rectangles which should measure 4x6 inches. Place half of these rectangles on the prepared baking sheet and spoon about 1 tablespoon of fruit jam into the center of each, making sure to leave a border.
5. Cover them with the remaining rectangles and press the edges with a fork to seal.
6. Apply beaten egg to the tops of the pop tarts before creating small holes for steam to escape. The oven temperature should be set to 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes of baking until the pop tarts reach golden brown.
7. During the pop tarts' baking time prepare the icing mixture by combining powdered sugar with milk and vanilla extract in a bowl until it reaches a smooth consistency.
8. After baking the pop tarts let them cool down for a few minutes before you can drizzle the icing over the tops.
