INGREDIENTS

Store-Bought Filling (Optional)

• In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water. Once the starch has dissolved, stir. Combine this blend with the store-bought jam and, if desired, the zest of one lemon in a bowl. Stir until well blended. Put aside.

Put Together The Pop Tart

• Set oven temperature to 375 F. Put parchment paper on the rim of a baking sheet. Whisk one tablespoon of water into the egg to make the egg wash in a small bowl. Put aside.

• Roll out one sheet of pie dough or puff pastry to measure 9″ by 12″ on a well-floured surface. To make it oval-shaped, trim the corners with a knife or pizza cutter. Gently roll the dough out onto the baking sheet that has been prepared after carefully rolling it around your rolling pin.

• Apply egg wash to the crust’s edge, leaving a 1-inch border. Evenly distribute the chilled filling onto the crust. Maintain a 1-inch margin.

• Roll out your second pie crust to the same thickness as your first. Roll the dough around your rolling pin with caution. Cover the bottom crust with the second crust.

• Seal the top and bottom crusts together by gently pressing the dough’s edges with your fingers. To crimp the edges, use a fork. Make holes in the center of the pop tart with a fork or a toothpick.

• Use the remaining egg wash to coat the entire pop tart. Bake for 17 to 22 minutes, until the color turns golden. After letting the pop tart cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, carefully move it to a wire rack to finish cooling.

NOTES

• Store-bought pie crust or puff pastry: Use two sheets (one package) of your preferred store-bought pastry. Be careful to defrost in advance. Thaw according to the instructions on the package.

• Jam from the store: I suggest adding one and a half tablespoons of cornstarch to the jam. To taste more homemade and fresh, you may also add a little lemon zest to the jam.

• Storage: Keep this enormous pop tart sealed in its container. Keep for two to three days at room temperature.
