  • Flaky PASTRY RECIPE:
  • 2 cups 240 grams all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1 cup 225 grams unsalted butter cut into cubes and chilled
  • 1 large egg 50 grams
  • 7 teaspoons 35 grams buttermilk
  • STRAWBERRY FILLING
  • 3/4 cup of Strawberry jam
  • CREAM CHEESE ICING:
  • 1 cup 100 grams icing sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons 20 grams cream cheese
  • 20 grams lemon juice or squeeze half a lemon
  • A couple of drops of red food coloring

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350F
  • In a mixing bowl, add the flour, salt and sugar and mix using a paddle attachment to combine for about a minute.
  • Add in the cubed butter and mix until a pea size crumble is formed. If you don’t have a mixing machine yo can use a food processor, just follow the same steps.
  • In an other bowl, add the eggs and milk and mix them together for about a minutes or so or until you see the dough forming and pulling away from the sides of the bowl.
  • Remove dough and place on lightly floured working surface.
  • Separate the dough in half and sheet down dough using a rolling pin to approximately 3mm or 10X12 rectangle
  • Using a pizza cutter or knife cut out each piece by 3X4 inch rectangles.
  • Brush the edges around rectangular pastry dough with water, this will help seal the edges of the pop tarts.
  • Fill one half with a dollop of strawberry jam and spread throughout avoiding the edges of the pastry.
  • Now place the other half onto the filled pastry and using a fork pinch the edges together.
  • Place onto parchment lined baking and bake for about 13-15 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
  • Once baked remove from oven and let them cool for 30 minutes before applying the frosting.
  • FOR THE FROSTING
  • In a bowl add the icing sugar, cream cheese, lemon juice and red food coloring and mix until smooth texture is achieved.
  • Add the frosting to the top of each pop tart.
  • Serve and enjoy!!
