Vegan Strawberry Pop Tarts

Ingredients
  

Pop Tart

  • 2 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup vegan butter (cold)
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1 Tbsp milk alternative optional
  • 1 cup Strawberry jam or alternative flavor

Strawberry Icing

  • 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp milk alternative (I use soy)
  • 1 1/4 cup vegan powdered sugar

Instructions
 

Making Pop Tarts

  • Use a food processor (or mixer, or by hand) to mix together the flour, salt, and sugar.
  • Cut the butter into small pieces. Add to food processor and pulse until butter is evenly distributed.
  • Add the water to the crumby mixture and blend until the dough forms. Gather dough into a ball, place in bowl and cover. Place in the refrigerator for 30-45 minutes.
  • Roll out dough to a lightly floured surface to about 1/8" thickness. Cut into Pop-tart size rectangles. Half will serve as the top.
  • Spread about 3 tsp of jam to each of the rectangles (half of them), allowing space around the edges to seal them with a fork. Top with remaining rectangles. Seal edges using the tip of a fork. Poke some vent holes at the top (to ensure they don't explode).
  • Place in 350 F oven for 28-33 minutes, until golden. Allow to cool for for at least 40 minutes before applying icing.

Making Icing

  • Whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon, milk, and about 3 teaspoons of jam using a spoon. It will be very thick but not runny.
  • Add icing to to cooled tarts. Allow icing to harden (about an hour) if storing in an airtight container. Otherwise, enjoy immediately.
