Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 (15 oz) pkg refrigerated pie crusts you should have 2 flat (9 inch) pie dough disks
  • 6 tablespoons strawberry jam/preserves I used Smuckers Preserves and can’t vouch for another brand
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2-4 tablespoons heavy cream or half-and-half plus more if necessary
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Sprinkles

Instructions

  • *I’d highly recommend watching the video above for visuals.
  • Use a pizza cutter to cut each crust into 4 equal-sized rectangles (mine were each 5”x3”). Combine the leftover dough, re-roll it out, and then cut 4 more rectangles. You'll have 12 total rectangles.
  • Place 1 tablespoon of strawberry jam in the center of 6 rectangles.
  • Spread the jam out to within 1/4 inch of the edge.
  • Use your finger to moisten the outside of each pie crust round with water.
  • Top each filling rectangle with another pastry rectangle.
  • Use your fingers to press the seams together, then use a fork to crimp the edges together.
  • Use a knife to poke a few slits in the top.
  • Hit “ON” on the air fryer.
Then hit “PRE-HEAT”. Set the temperature to 350 degrees F and set the timer to 11 minutes.
Hit “START”.
  • The air fryer will beep at you when it’s finished preheating.
Open up the air fryer and spray the basket with cooking spray. 
Place two of the pop tarts in the basket.
Close the air fryer.  It will beep at you when it’s finished cooking.
Repeat with remaining pop tarts. 
Cool completely before frosting. I threw mine in the freezer for 5-10 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, heavy cream, butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Spread the cooled tarts with frosting and sprinkle with sprinkles.
  • Let frosting harden in the fridge before serving.
  • Take 5 seconds to rate this recipe below. We greatly appreciate it!
