Sourdough Discard Pop Tarts
The homemade snack that will wow your kids!
Equipment
- Mixing Bowl (if not using a stand mixer – mix the dough in bowl by hand)
- Whisk
- Grater
- Stand Mixer – (Dough hook) (Optional)
- Pin Roller
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment paper
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour I used Einkorn
- 5 tbsp unsalted butter cold
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar
- ½ cup sourdough discard
- 1 tsp white vinegar
- 1 egg for the egg wash
Instructions
THE CRUST
- In a mixing bowl, whisk flour, sugar and salt.
- Using a cheese grater, grate the cold butter into the flour mixture.
- Using your hands, mix until it forms large crumbles.
- Add sourdough starter discard and vinegar to the mixture. Use your stand mixture with a dough hook or hands to bring the dough together, into a ball.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place in fridge for at least 1 hour (and up to 24 hrs – you can make the night before and assemble in the morning)
PUT THEM TOGETHER:
- Preheat oven to 350F and prep a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/8 inches thick on a floured surface. Cut the dough into smaller rectangles or use circular molds. You'll need a top and a bottom.
- Add 1-2 tbsp of homemade jam (or store bought) to one side of the dough and then add the top piece. Use a fork to press the edges of the two pieces securely together.
- Brush the tops of the pop tarts with the egg wash (lightly beaten egg).
- Place pop tarts on your baking sheet and cook at 350 F for 25-30 mins, or until golden brown.
Store:
- I store mine on our counter for 4-5 days, if you need to keep fresh longer you can store in the refrigerator for 2 up to weeks.
