Rhubarb Pop Tarts
Rhubarb & Strawberry Pop Tarts
Ingredients:
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ tbsp granulated sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 3-5 tbsp ice water
- 1 cup rhubarb, chopped
- 1 cup strawberries, chopped
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 3 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 tbsp coarse sugar (for sprinkling)
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the cold butter pieces and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, combine the rhubarb, strawberries, cornstarch, and sugar. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface and cut into rectangles. Place half of the rectangles on the prepared baking sheet.
- Divide the fruit mixture among the rectangles on the baking sheet. Brush the edges with the beaten egg and place the remaining rectangles on top. Press the edges to seal.
- Brush the tops of the pop tarts with the remaining egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool before serving.
