Ingredients
o
2 cups + 2 Tbsp flour, plus more for dusting
o
1 tsp salt
o
1 Tbsp sugar
o
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter (cold)
o
4 Tbsp ice water
o
8-10 Tbsp preserves/jam (The better the jam, the better the poptarts)
o
1 egg + 1 Tbsp water
Optional: 2 cups chopped fruit
Instructions
1.
Mix the flour, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
2.
Add butter and mix with fingers until it resembles coarse meal.
3.
Add ice water and mix lightly and form into a ball.
4.
Divide in half; shape each half into a disk. Wrap in plastic and
chill for 1 hour.
5.
Roll 1 disk at a time on a floured surface to about 13x11
inches. Trim to 12x10 and cut into 5x3-inch rectangles.
6.
Place 4 rectangles on each baking sheet. Spoon a heaping
tablespoon of preserves onto the center and top with chopped fruit.
7.
Cover with second dough rectangle and gently press the edges to
seal.
8.
Crimp edges with a floured fork and poke a few holes on top.
9.
Cover tarts and freeze for 2 hours or up to 1 week (I froze overnight and then baked the next morning).
10.
Whisk egg and water and brush over tarts right before baking (I skipped this step)
12.
Bake frozen tarts at 375 for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.

Sift powdered sugar over tarts or frost with powdered sugar
icing.
