These sweet homemade pop tarts are filled with brown sugar or fruit fillings and will make your inner child smile.

My pop tarts have easy, tasty fillings sandwiched in a buttery, flaky crust, topped with a smear of glaze scattered with sprinkles.

Add the butter and shortening and pulse about 10 -12 times until the fat is cut into the flour mixture and it’s pea size.

Pour in about ⅔ of the ice water and pulse a few more times until a ball begins to form, adding more water as needed. Be careful not to overmix.

The dough should not be completely blended, it will come together on the counter. Scrape dough onto the counter, divide it in two & form into two flat discs.
