Semi homemade Pop Tarts

Made these for a bake sale....easy, stress free and they were a hit!

What you need:

Store bought pie crust ( I used Marie Callender's - it is milk free )

Cookie cutters of your choice

Fresh fruit, fruit preserves or pie filling. ( I prefer jam or preserves...easy ). If planning to use fresh fruit, sugar and honey to sweeten is optional.

What you do:

Thaw pie crust in fridge or at room temperature

Heat oven to 400F

Mold into a ball

Dust surface and hands with flour and roll with a rolling pin to desired thickness ( 1/4 of an inch )

Cut with cookie cutters

Add filling

Place identical cut out on top and press ends together with hands or a fork

Poke top with a fork or have a desired cut out on top. ( I used a smaller cookie cutter to create effect for top crust... Do this before covering filling with top crust )

Line cookie sheet with parchment paper and arrange tarts on top

Bake in oven for 15-20 mins.

Enjoy!!
