I have used the Pillsbury brand and the Dufour pie dough which uses palm oil for a dairy free and vegan option. They will keep for up to 4 days in the fridge or a couple of days out on the counter. I like to enjoy them chilled but if you want to heat them up, I recommend toasting them to get the edges nice and crispy. Expert Tips Homemade Pop-Tarts are baking at its simplest. The pastry I use is my master recipe for pie crust (aka shortcrust pastry). It is easy to make by hand and yields you a lovely, buttery and flakey pastry.

Spoon 1 tablespoon of apple pie filling in the center of each pastry rectangle. Cover with another rectangle of dough. Press down gently on the edges to seal. The take a fork a press along all the sides to make sure the pastry is sealed. Use the same fork to poke small holes in the top. Repeat with the rest of the pastry from the fridge. Then press together the leftover pastry scraps, wrap them again and refrigerate for another 20 minutes before making more pop tarts. Don't reuse the "scraps" of the "scraps", the more you press on the dough, the more tough it becomes.

Place the rectangles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. They won’t spread much in the oven so these can be fairly close together. Set aside and repeat the same process with the other half of the dough to create eight more rectangles.

Warm or cold I could always find a reason to enjoy them. Ice Water. Along with the cold butter, we want to use ice cold water in the pie dough to help keep that butter firm. This recipe calls for ¼ cup of ice water, although you may not need to use the entire amount. I measure out ¼ cup of cold water, add several ice cubes, then when I’m ready to add the water to the dough, strain out the ice cubes and measure ¼ cup of the water. Be sure to drizzle the water slowly and only add as much as needed to form a dough. The filling is delicious on it’s own!
