Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the dough: whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Add in the cold cubed butter and cut in using a pastry cutter or forks until it forms pea-sized crumbles. Whisk together the egg and milk and add to the dough, mixing until it clumps together.

  2. 2

    Roll out the dough on a floured surface and form into two discs. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

  3. 3

    Take a disc of dough from the fridge and roll into a 9x12 inch rectangle. Cut into 3x4 inch rectangles for the pop-tart bases.

  4. 4

    Place the rectangles on a lined baking sheet and refrigerate. Repeat with the second disc.

  5. 5

    Make the filling by combining brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Brush the prepared rectangles with egg wash and add the filling.

  6. 6

    Top with another rectangle, seal the edges, and poke holes in the tops.

  7. 7

    Refrigerate for 20 minutes, then preheat your oven to 350°F.

  8. 8

    Bake the pop-tarts for 22-26 minutes until golden.

  9. 9

    Make the glaze by whisking together the glaze ingredients, and apply to cooled pop-tarts.
