Peanut Butter and Jelly Pop Tarts
Peanut Butter and Jelly Pop-Tarts are a fan favorite in my household, and I'm sure you can understand why!
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1/4 cup preserves
- 1 recipe unbaked pie crust (you can make your own pastry dough or buy prepared crust at the grocery)
- water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Roll the pie crust 1/4 inch thick and cut into rectangles, about 2×3 inches.
- Place one rectangle on a lightly floured work surface, top with 1 tsp each of the peanut butter and preserves in the very center. **
- Lightly dip your index finger into a cup of water and “brush” the border of the dough around the pb&j with the water (this will allow the two sides of the rectangle to adhere to one another).
- Top with another rectangular piece of pie dough. Take the tines of a fork and gently press down along the edges to adhere (making sure the mixture stays inside the tart).***
- Place the tarts on a parchment or Silpat lined baking sheet and bake for 18 minutes or until golden.
- Serve.
- * You can use prepared Pie Crusts too such as Pillsbury or your favorite brand
- ** You can also combine the peanut butter and preserves in a bowl and place 2 teaspoons of the mixture inside the tart.
- ** To Freeze: place tarts on a cookie sheet and freeze for one hour. Remove, place in a Ziploc bag, label and freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to eat follow steps 6-7, adding an extra 2 minutes to the baking time.
