Blueberry pop tarts filled with fresh blueberry jam then finished with a blueberry icing. These blueberry pop tarts are simple to make and perfect for breakfast or as a snack.
Ingredients
Blueberry Jam
1 ½ cups blueberries
3 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon water
Pop tarts
2 – 9 inch pie crusts
Eggwash
1 large egg
1 tablespoon milk
Blueberry Icing
1 cup powdered sugar
½ tablespoon blueberry jam
1 ½ -2 tablespoons water
Directions:
In a small pot, add fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, and a teaspoon of water. Cook the blueberries for several minutes until the blueberries burst open and start to appear jammy. Remove the blueberries from heat and set aside for now. As the jam cools, it will thicken.
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside for now.
Unroll the pie crust and cut off the edges to make the dough as rectangular as possible. Cut each of the dough into 6 rectangles for a total of 12 rectangles.
Place 6 of these rectangles onto the baking sheet.
Spoon about 1 ½ -2 tablespoons of the blueberry jam onto rectangles on the baking sheet.
Place the rest of the pie crust dough on top. Seal the pop tarts using the tines of the fork.
In a small bowl, mix together an egg and a tablespoon of milk to make the eggwash. Use a brush to brush the eggwash over the pie crust. Sprinkle coarse turbinado sugar on top if desired.
Bake the pop tarts for about 25-30 minutes until the top has browned.
Remove the pop tarts from the oven and allow it to cool for at least several minutes.
In a small mixing bowl, mix together powdered sugar, the liquid from the leftover blueberry jam, and water until the icing comes together. Allow it to thicken for about 5 minutes.
Use a spoon to drizzle the blueberry icing over the pop tarts and add sprinkles on top.
Serve the blueberry pop tarts for breakfast or as a snack.
