Listen, once you make homemade pop-tarts you’re going to turn your nose up at the ones in the box.
So about two weeks ago, I made homemade jam and had a whole jar left in the fridge.
I didn’t want to waste it so I decided to make a recipe that I had saved on my Pinterest, homemade pop-tarts. Check out the recipe below!

- Place on baking sheet and bake for 9-10 minutes / light brown
