Take note
Be cautious while handling hot ingredients and sharp tools. Ensure that you have all the necessary gluten-free ingredients to avoid any cross-contamination.

1

Prepare the Dough

In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cut in 1/2 cup of cold unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons of ice-cold water, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until the dough comes together. Divide the dough in half, shape it into disks, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

2

Prepare the Filling

In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of your favorite fruit (such as strawberries or apples), 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of gluten-free cornstarch. Heat over medium heat until the fruit is soft and the mixture has thickened. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.

3

Roll and Cut the Dough

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Take one of the chilled dough disks out of the refrigerator and roll it out on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness. Using a round cookie cutter, cut out circles of dough. Place half of the circles onto the prepared baking sheet.

4

Add the Filling and Seal

Spoon a tablespoon of the fruit filling onto each dough circle on the baking sheet. Be careful not to overfill. Gently place another dough circle on top of the filling and press the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges and create a decorative pattern.

5

Bake and Enjoy

Bake the pop tarts in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool on a wire rack. Once they have cooled, you can drizzle a glaze made of powdered sugar and a touch of milk on top for extra sweetness. Now, go ahead and savor your scrumptious gluten-free gourmet pop tart!
