Step 1

To make jam, heat a sauce pot to medium heat and add fresh strawberries, cane sugar, lemon juice, and water.

Step 2

Use a berry masher to break down the berries as they heat up. Keep over heat for 10-15 minutes or until most strawberries are mashed.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine splash of water with cornstarch and whisk until cornstarch is completely diluted. Then, pour the liquid cornstarch into the jam. Stir.

Step 4

Remove strawberry jam from the heat and then allow it to chill completely (4-6 hours or overnight for best results). It needs to be jam-like consistency.

Step 5

Once your jam is set, take the puff pastry out from the freezer and let thaw and preheat the oven to 400°F.

Step 6

Use a pizza cutter to slice each puff pastry sheet into 3 columns and 2 rows (the puff pastry comes folded and the 3 columns should be where the creases are. Use a pizza cutter for a smooth cut. You should end up with 12 rectangles total.

Step 7

Line it with parchment paper and place 6 pastry puffs on a sheet.

Step 8

Use a spoon to put 2-3 tablespoons of cold strawberry jam on one side of each pastry puff (6 total will have strawberry jam). Leave ¼” - ½” around the perimeter of each rectangle to give room to seal the Pop Tart.

Step 9

Take a pastry puff rectangle without jam and put it on top of the strawberry jam filled ones. We are assembling the pop tart here. Use a fork to crease the edges of the Pop Tart, sealing the strawberry jam inside. Make sure the edges are secured! We don’t want to lose out on the filling.

Step 10

Use a silicone brush to brush the top of each pop tart top with egg wash.

Step 11

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until puff pastry starts to rise and start to get golden brown. If needed, broil them for 2-3 minutes after baking for a golden, buttery brown color.

Step 12

While the Pop Tarts bake, make the frosting. In a small bowl, whisk together almond milk and powdered sugar. I recommend mixing ½ of the powder sugar first, and then adding in the second ½ cup. It makes it easier to combine.

Step 13

Add the SMALLEST, MOST TINY drop of red food coloring for a light pink color.

Step 14

Once the Pop Tarts have slightly cooled, add the glaze on top and sprinkle with red sprinkles. Enjoy warm or save for later.
