Course Dessert
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 4 LARGE POP-TARTS

Ingredients

Pop-Tarts

  • 2 refrigerated pie crusts
  • All-purpose flour for rolling out pie dough
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Frosting

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2.5 tsp almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Prepare the pumpkin pie filling by combining pumpkin puree, coconut sugar, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Flour a clean work surface and unroll the pre-made pie crust. Roll it out to about 1/8″ thickness and trim the edges to form a rectangle.
  • Cut the pie crust into four equal parts both vertically and horizontally. Repeat with the other pie crust.
  • Arrange four cut-out pie crusts on the baking sheet.
  • Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of filling onto each section, spreading it evenly and leaving a 1-inch border.
  • Top with the remaining pie crust pieces, pressing the edges together with a fork. Poke holes in the tops and bake for 25-28 minutes until lightly golden.
  • Let cool slightly before preparing the frosting. Combine all frosting ingredients in a bowl, whisk until smooth, and spread over each pop-tart. Sprinkle with cinnamon and enjoy!

Notes

  • Opt for pre-made pie crust for best results, but feel free to use your favorite homemade recipe if preferred.
  • When adding the filling, ensure to leave about 1 inch of space from all sides.
  • Don’t fret if the filling spills out slightly at the edges.
  • Allow the pop-tarts to cool to room temperature before applying the frosting.
  • Get creative and experiment with different fillings to craft your own unique flavored pop-tarts!
