Toasted Pastry Pies

This Strawberry Pop-Tart Dish Recreates the Packaged Food With a Pie Recipe

— September 3, 2016 — Lifestyle
Pop-Tarts might be one of the most well-known toasted pastry meals that were designed for snacking convenience, and this pie recipe creatively resizes the single serving into a pie that can be enjoyed by many. The Pop-Tart Pie also reconfigures much of the recipe so that the tart has a thicker crust, more filling and a better overall taste than the toaster version.

The Pop-Tart pie recreates many of the flavors and ingredients featured in the original single serve dish with more wholesome ingredients to improve the tart's overall texture. This is seen in the pie crust that replaces the cardboard and paper thin pastry on the original tart as well as using fresh strawberries to create the thick filling.
