Pumpkin Pie Pop Tarts Recipe Using Pie Crust

This pumpkin pie pop tarts recipe by Delish on YouTube is a seasonal treat that uses refrigerated pie crusts. These look so good and would impress many people, because they are baked homemade. I don’t eat pop tarts anymore, but I do love them when I see them at bakeries. I think it’s interesting to see how simple it is to make these, and you can use any type of filling you like too. Pop tarts can be a morning treat with your coffee or a midday pick me up snack. These would be nice to make for your kids because they are easy to grab-n-go.

Ingredients:

• 2 refrigerated pie crusts
• Flour, for rolling out pie doughs
• 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
• Pinch salt
• Egg wash (1 beaten egg mixed with 2 tsp milk or water)

For the glaze:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tbsp milk
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup cinnamon sugar
• Orange sanding sugar

Directions:

First, preheat oven to 350F. In a medium bowl, combine pumpkin, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Whisk until smooth. Then, roll out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface, and cut the pieces into small even rectangles. Transfer the pieces to the baking sheet, and scoop the pumpkin pie mixture into the center of the dough rectangles. Continue to watch Delish tutorial on YouTube for full instructions and details.

Next, make the glaze and spread on top of the cooled pop tarts. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar on top.

Overall, I love making homemade pop tarts out of pie crusts, because they are one of the easiest pastries to make. A lot of people get impressed and think I make them from scratch, but it’s all with pre packed and canned ingredients.
