• 9 oz jiffy pie crust mix (1 box)
• 4 Tbsp water (4-5 Tbsp)
• 4 Tbsp jam (*1 TBSP per pop tart* blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, strawberry, raspberry jam, or apple butter. )
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 2 Tbsp milk (1-2 tbsp)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400F.

2. 2

   Make the pie crust according to the box instructions with 4-5 Tablespoons of water. Cut out the face of the Jiffy box to use as a template for the size of your pop-tarts.

3. 3

   Roll out the pie crust into a long rectangle and use the template to cut out 8 rectangles. You will need to bunch and re-roll dough a few times, adding water to the mix. Rectangles should be 1/8-1/4 inch in thickness.

   Line four rectangles on a baking sheet. Place 1 Tablespoon of jelly, jam, or apple butter on the dough and spread out, leaving 1/2-inch perimeter clean. Wet the perimeter of the rectangle with water and top with another rectangle of dough. Use a fork to press down all along the edges. Repeat for remaining dough.

   Bake at 400F for 10-12 minutes.

   Top with glaze made by combining powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl with a whisk or spoon. Drizzle onto the warm pop-tarts and decorate with your choice of sprinkles

   Tip: to make a cinnamon sugar glaze, add 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon to the glaze. To make a pink glaze, add 1 teaspoon of your red jam (raspberry or strawberry) to the glaze.
