Well, my quest for pumpkin was unsuccessful last weekend. Seriously, the entire shelf was gone. Nothin. So no pumpkin treats quite yet. I guess I’ll have to pace myself.
But that is okay because I get to share these amazing beauties with you. Strawberry Pop Tarts. Yep, just like the ones you ate when you were little, minus the foil wrapper but much, much better. I love these so much.
I remember being in college and grabbing a foil 2 pack before heading out then eating them in class. Forget the toaster, I just ate them plain. Sugary sweet flaky processed goodness. Obviously, I was super healthy during college. Weren’t we all?
This grown up version still has the sugary sweet flaky goodness of the original, but a homemade feel that makes everything better.
Here is the deal- you can absolutely use a homemade pie dough for this. If you are looking for a good one, look no further because my Grandma’s pie crust recipe is right here. However, a premade pie dough will work just as well and taste amazing too! I’m here for the semi homemade! Heck yeah!
These are amazing when warm, but still just as good when cool. Give these a try and let me know what you think. You can make other flavors of these pop tarts as well, I’ll share those soon too. Did you eat Pop Tarts when you were young like I did? And were you as healthy as I obviously was in college? Let me know how these compare to the original.
