Homemade Sourdough Pop Tarts truly are a treat that you have to add to your recipe box. This recipe combines the tart and sour flavors with the natural sweeteners to bring you the perfect Breakfast or Dessert!

It’s currently Spring time and I’m craving all of the fresh fruit flavors that are just around the corner from being in season. This is the first year that my June bearing Strawberries will really give me a good yield. We transferred several Strawberry plants for my husband’s grandmother’s place 3 years ago. Since the plants take a couple of years to deeply root, we haven’t gotten much fruit from them the past couple of years.
We also have several Raspberry plants out in our existing garden. The Raspberry plants are being moved to our new garden space this year, so hopefully we will still get some Raspberries. We are excited to take you along with us on our journey to renovate and add garden spaces this year. Stay tuned for that adventure beginning soon!
That being said, I am already thinking up a ton of delicious recipes to use up these garden fresh fruits! Try a Strawberry or Raspberry variation of these Sourdough Scones, they are delicious. The first seasonal Strawberry recipe coming to you is for these homemade Pop Tarts. They truly have been a favorite to experiment with in the kitchen and I believe we have nailed this recipe.
Sourdough FAQ
Sourdough is such a gut healthy food to be consuming daily. It contains SO many probiotics and is easier to digest than conventional wheat. It also is easy to use once you get a mature Sourdough starter. You can virtually replace it in any recipe to add health benefits and a depth of flavor. I love to use it in my crescent rolls, tortillas, and even a skillet meal. If I haven’t convinced you yet to jump on the Sourdough band wagon, I’m confident that will change by the end if this recipe!
Why make homemade Sourdough Pop Tarts?
The reasons you would make this recipe are simple, 1) You can make good ole’ Pop Tarts on a whim, right at home, 2) You can control the ingredients, 3) This recipe contains gut healthy and delicious ingredients!
There is a nostalgic taste to boxed pop tarts from the grocery store. However, they contain many harmful ingredients that I choose to avoid. It’s great to have a much better option that I can make right at home and control the ingredients of!
Can you freeze Homemade Sourdough Pop Tarts?
Yes, you can most definitely freeze these Pop Tarts! There are two ways you could do this. I would recommend making the dough ahead of time, rolling it out, an cutting it, and freezing it in pre-cut rectangles between parchment paper. Freezing it that way will be make it easiest to pick up where you left off when you are ready to use the dough for Pop Tarts later. Plus, then you could switch out the filling for whatever fruit is in season or some other Pop Tart variety! Though I do recommend making the homemade jam fresh, but you can also make ahead and freeze in a freezer safe container.
The second way you could make the Pop Tarts ahead of time and freeze for later use is to spread the jam on the dough and seal it in with a top rectangle of dough and freeze it that way.
The glaze is not meant to be made and frozen ahead of time. I do not recommend freezing it because when it thaws, the consistency could change. It’s quick to whip up so just do so fresh.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into rectangles about 5 x 3 inches large.
Add 2 Tbsp. of jam mixture to the center of half the rectangles, spread it around leaving 1/2 inch of space around the edge.

Place a second rectangle of dough on top of the jam-filled on. Use a utensil, such as a fork, to press together the edges. Cut a slit in the top
*Optional: Beat an egg to create an egg wash, brush it on the tops of each Pop Tart to create a golden crusted sheen.
Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool before adding glaze.

In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar and milk. Whisk until fully mixed.

I LOVE Einkorn. There is definitely a learning curve. Make sure you let your recipes rest for 5 or 10 minutes before cooking to allow the liquid to be absorbed. I can’t wait to hear what you think of this recipe!
