HOW DO I MAKE MY SOURDOUGH POP TARTS: STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Make the Dough:

1. In a large bowl, mix the sourdough starter, flour, sugar, and salt.
Then cut in the cold butter until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
Gradually add cold water, mixing until a dough forms.
Divide your dough in half, shape it into discs, wrap it in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.

Assemble the Pop-Tarts:

2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

3. Roll out each disc of dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick.

4. Cut into rectangles (approx. 3×4 inches).

5. Place a spoonful of jam in the center of half the rectangles, leaving a border.

6. Brush the edges with water, place another rectangle on top, and press the edges with a fork to seal. Poke holes through the top with a fork.

Bake:

7. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper place the pop tarts.

8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool completely.

Add Glaze:
