Whoever decided that eating pop tarts for breakfast is socially acceptable – I love you. I grew up eating pop tarts for breakfast – 90s kids, where you at?! – but as an adult, I probably haven’t had a pop tart in 15 years. That changes today. Today, we’re making pop tarts, in the the air fryer. Air fryer strawberry pop tarts to be exact.

Ingredients

• Refrigerated pie dough
• Strawberry jam
• Powdered sugar
• Heavy cream
• Butter
• Vanilla extract
• Sprinkles

Here’s the best part, these homemade pop tarts are *almost* as easy as opening a box and putting them in your toaster. The pop tarts only require TWO ingredients, they quickly air fry to golden flake-y perfection, and then get drizzled in a super simple, classic sweet icing. Oh. And don’t forget the sprinkles.

There are three parts to today’s air fryer strawberry pop tarts recipe:

1. The crust
2. The filling
3. The icing

Simply cut the crust into pop tart shapes, fill with strawberry jam, and pop ’em in the air fryer. 11 minutes later, they’re done! Cool completely before drizzling in glaze and sprinkling with sprinkles.

That’s it!

How long do homemade pop tarts last?

While they never last this long, I’d say these homemade pop tarts are good in the fridge for about a week!

How do you store homemade pop tarts?

Store homemade pop tarts in an airtight container in the fridge to keep them fresh!

What is pop tart crust made of?

Today, we’re just using pre-made refrigerated pie crusts as the crust for the pop tart.

How do you make pop tarts in the oven?

While I haven’t personally tried this, I’d made a similar recipe in the oven. I’d suggest 400 degrees F for 10-20 minutes, or until the pie crust is golden brown and flakey!

Flake-y, tender crust with strawberry jam filling and the most perfectly butter, vanilla glaze, and sprinkles. A homemade version of a childhood classic.
