Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup gluten free all-purpose flour blend
  • 1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup cold butter, cut into cubes
  • 2-4 tablespoons cold water
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup raspberry or strawberry jelly
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions:

Crust:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine gluten-free flour blend, xanthan gum, and salt. Add in cold butter cubes and mix with a pastry blender or fork until the texture resembles coarse meal.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of cold water and mix until a dough forms. If needed, add in more water one tablespoon at a time until dough forms. Do not overmix.
  3. Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for one hour.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. On a lightly-floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/8-inch thick.
  6. Using a large biscuit cutter or a cup, cut out 12 circles and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Gently re-roll the scraps and cut out more circles until all the dough is used.
  7. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool.

Filling:

  1. In a small bowl, combine sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
  2. Spread about 1 teaspoon of the sugar mixture on each pastry circle. Place 1 teaspoon of jelly on top of the sugar mixture on half of the circles.
  3. Top each jelly-covered pastry circle with a plain pastry circle and press the edges together.

Glaze:

  1. In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of water. Mix until a glaze forms.
  2. Using a spoon, drizzle the glaze over the pop tarts.
  3. Let the glaze set before serving.
