These pop tarts are made with a flaky pastry crust and filled with a warm and gooey apple cinnamon filling. The combination of sweet apples and warm cinnamon makes these pop tarts the perfect comfort food for any time of day.
To make Apple Cinnamon Pop Tarts, you will need the following ingredients:
For the pastry crust:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/4 cup cold water
For the apple cinnamon filling:
- 2 cups peeled and diced apples
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the chilled butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the cold water and mix until the dough comes together.
On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thickness. Cut the dough into rectangles, about 3x4 inches in size. Place half of the rectangles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, and water. Mix until the apples are coated in the mixture. Spoon the apple mixture onto the rectangles on the baking sheet, leaving a small border around the edges.
Place the remaining rectangles of dough on top of the apple mixture. Use a fork to crimp the edges of the pop tarts together. Use a knife to cut a few small slits in the top of each pop tart.
Bake the pop tarts for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Allow the pop tarts to cool for a few minutes before serving.
These Apple Cinnamon Pop Tarts are the perfect combination of sweet and savory. The flaky pastry crust pairs perfectly with the warm and gooey apple cinnamon filling. These pop tarts are a great breakfast or snack option that will satisfy your cravings for something sweet.
