Air Fryer Strawberry Frosted Pop-Tarts with Sprinkles Ingredients

• Pre-Made Pie Crust
• Strawberry Jelly
• Vanilla Icing
• Valentine’s Sprinkles
• Cooking Spray
• Heart Cookie Cutter (alternative set)

Making your Air Fryer pop-tarts is simple and you’ll only need 2 ingredients! Refrigerated pie crust and strawberry jam. They combine together to make a flaky and perfect pop-tart. Then you’ll add a vanilla icing drizzle and sprinkles.

How to Make Homemade Air Fryer Pop-Tarts

To make your strawberry air fryer pop-tarts you’ll need to unroll your refrigerated pie crust. If you want to use homemade pie crust you can use that instead.

Once your pie crust is rolled out you’ll use your cookie cutters to cut out the heart shapes. If you wanted to do squares or other shapes you could do that instead.

In the center of every other heart place a tablespoon of strawberry jam or preserves.

Place a heart on top of the strawberry filled heart and press the edges together with a fork.

Lightly spray each pop-tart with cooking spray.

Place in an Air Fryer on 375 for 5-8 minutes.

You’ll want to watch your pop-tarts closely because they can cook quickly.

Remove from the air fryer and let cool for a few minutes and then drizzle with icing.

For the icing, you can use a can of store-bought frosting or make your own icing.

Sprinkle the sprinkles over the icing.

How to Make Homemade Pop-Tart Icing

To make homemade icing for your pop-tarts mix together:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 Tbsp half and half or heavy whipping cream, plus more as needed
• 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Mix everything together in a bowl until smooth. If your icing is too thick you can add small amounts of the half and half until you reach the desired constancy. You want it to be spreadable. Not too thick and not too runny. The warmth from the pop-tarts will melt the icing a little too.

Tips for Making Air Fryer Pop-Tarts

• Make sure to seal your edges well. You can do this by pressing the back of a fork around the edges of the pop-tart crust.
• While Air Fryer pop-tarts can be stored for up to a week in the fridge I find they taste best when eaten the same day because the crust can get soggy.
• Switch up the filling and sprinkles for different variations of pop-tarts.
