Ingredients:


  • ▢1 batch 2 Ingredient Magic Dough (1 3/4 cups self rising flour, 1 cup greek yogurt)

  • ▢2 tablespoon granulated sweetener of choice * See notes

  • ▢1/2 cup strawberry jam can use any jam or jelly of choice (sugar free jam is best)

  • ▢2 tablespoon milk of choice

FOR THE GLAZE

  • ▢1/2 cup sugar free powdered sugar can use standard powdered sugar (confectioner's sugar)

  • ▢2 tablespoon Greek yogurt ** See notes

  • ▢1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions


  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper, and set aside.

  • In a large mixing bowl, prepare your magic dough with the sweetener and mix well, until combined. Using your hands, shape the dough into a thick, smooth ball.

  • Flour a kitchen surface and add a tablespoon of flour on top of the ball of dough. Transfer the ball of dough onto the floured surface, and knead several times.

  • Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough, forming a rectangular shape, about 12 inches by 6 inches. Using a sharp knife (or pizza cutter), slice once length-ways, and 7 times the other way, to form 16 uniform rectangles.


  • Place 8 of the rectangles on the lined baking tray, evenly spaced apart. Place 1 tablespoon of jam onto each rectangle. Place the other 8 rectangles on top of each one. Using a fork, press along each side of each pop tart, sealing it up completely. Using a pastry brush, brush the tops of each pop tart with milk.

  • Bake the pop tarts for 15-20 minutes, or until golden on top. Allow pop tarts to cool, before glazing.

  • While the pop tarts are cooling, prepare your glaze by combining your powdered sugar (powdered sugar) with the vanilla extract and yogurt. Whisk until a thick frosting remains. Using a spoon, spoon out frosting over the tops of each pop tart, spreading it slightly. Top with sprinkles, if desired.

AIR FRYER INSTRUCTIONS

  • Prepare pop tarts as directed

  • Place pop tarts in the air fryer tray.

  • Bake pop tarts at 350F for 10 minutes. Remove from air fryer and let cool, before glazing.


Notes * White sugar, monk fruit sweetener or baking Splenda works ** Start with 2 tablespoons. If your glaze is too thick, add more. If it is too thin, add extra powdered sugar. TO STORE: Homemade pop tarts must be stored in the fridge, in a sealed container. They will keep fresh for up to 5 days. TO FREEZE: Place leftover pop tarts in a ziplock bag and store in the freezer for up to 6 months. TO REHEAT: Re-heat pop tarts by thawing them to room temperature, before re-heating in the oven (350F for 10 minutes) or in the air fryer (370F for 3 minutes).
