Skip the boxed pop-tarts, and make these delicious pumpkin pie pop-tarts at home! The difference is amazing! 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 disks of pie dough
  • 2 C pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix)
  • 1/4 C maple syrup
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger

Icing


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400.
  2. Mix together the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and spices and set aside.
  3. Roll out the pie dough on a generously floured countertop, sprinkling the top with flour as needed to prevent it from sticking to your rolling pin. Roll the dough into a large rectangle, about 1/4″ thick.
  4. Trim the edges of the dough to make four straight edges, and then cut 12 rectangles from the dough. Spoon about a heaping tablespoon of filling into six of the rectangles, gently smoothing it out, but leaving a half-inch border around the edges.
  5. Cover the filled rectangles with six of the unfilled rectangles and gently push down with your fingers to seal. Carefully move the pop-tarts to baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Gather the dough scraps and roll them out to make one or two additional pop-tarts.
  6. Press around the edges of the pop-tarts with a fork to seal the two layers together. Poke several holes in the top of the pop-tarts with the fork. Beat an egg in a small dish, and then brush the tops of the pop-tarts with the egg.
  7. Bake in preheated oven for about 15 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool completely before icing.
  8. To make icing: Combine the powdered sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl, and then whisk in a tablespoon and a half of warm water to make a thick glaze. Use a spoon to drizzle the glaze over the cooled pop-tarts.
