Ingredients

  • pie dough can buy prepared, but suggest you make your own
  • cherry jam or whatever jam you like
  • 1 teaspoon egg mixed with 1 of water, mixed well
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Method

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat
  • Floor your board very well. Roll your pie dough out to to 12X8. Using a floured knife, cut the dough into mini-rectangles that are about 3X4 inches. You should have 8 mini-rectangles - enough to make a total of 4 pop tarts.
  • Place about 2 tablespoons of jam in the middle of 4 of the mini-rectangles.
  • Then, place the jam-less rectangles on top of the jam-filled rectangles
  • Press the edges of the tarts with a floured fork to seal the edges.
  • Poke a couple of small holes on top of the tarts with your fork to allow steam to escape.
  • Lightly brush the tops of the tarts with the egg wash.
  • Then sprinkle each tart with sugar.
  • Place in oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the tarts are brown along the edges and the jam has oozed out a bit!
  • Cool for about 5 minutes and then eat with tea!
