Description

Delicious homemade pop tarts filled with a sweet-tart strawberry-rhubarb filling, perfect for breakfast or dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup rhubarb, frozen or fresh (chopped)
  • 1 cup strawberries, frozen or fresh (chopped)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/2 tbsp tapioca starch
  • 1 1/2 cup gluten-free all-purpose baking flour
  • 1/4 cup tapioca flour
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 7 tbsp vegan butter (cold)
  • 1 large egg
  • Pinch sea salt
  • 35 tbsp cold water
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • 1 tbsp water (for egg wash)
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (for glaze)
  • 1 tbsp strawberry-rhubarb compote (for glaze)
  • 1 tbsp almond milk (for glaze)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Start with the filling. Place the rhubarb, strawberries, maple syrup, lemon juice, lemon zest, and tapioca starch into a pot over medium heat. Stir occasionally and cook for 6-8 minutes until the mixture thickens.
  2. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and chill until use.
  3. Place the gluten-free flour, tapioca flour, and sea salt inside a food processor. Add in the cold vegan butter and pulse until combined.
  4. Add 2 tablespoons of cold water and pulse until the dough begins to come together, resisting the temptation to add more water.
  5. Form the dough into a disc, wrap it, and roll out to about 1/8 inch thickness.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  7. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the strawberry-rhubarb filling into the center of half of the circles cut from the dough.
  8. Cover with remaining circles, cutting 4 small slits on top to let steam escape.
  9. Whisk together egg wash ingredients and brush over the pop tarts.
  10. Bake for 24-27 minutes until golden brown, then let cool on a wire rack.
  11. Whisk together glaze ingredients until smooth.

Notes

Pop tarts can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge or frozen for later use.
