Giant Homemade Easter Egg Pop Tart
This adorable homemade Easter Egg Pop Tart is so simple, adorable, and perfect for Easter mornings or gatherings!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 packages thawed puff pastry sheets (4 sheets). You can also use pie crusts!
- 1 egg + small splash water, beaten together
- 1 cup seedless strawberry jam
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup sprinkles
- Optional: extra colored icing for making an Easter Egg design
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Lightly grease a large baking sheet or cover with parchment paper or silicone baking mat
- Unfold one puff pastry sheet/pie crust on the baking sheet. Overlap a 2nd pastry sheet on top length-wise and use a rolling pin to roll puff pastry sheets out and combine into one longer sheet.
- Spread strawberry jam across the combined puff pastries, leaving about a 1/2 inch of space around the edges.
- Unfold the other two pastry sheets and lay on top of the first two pastries and jam.
- Use a fork to gently press the two sheets together, creating a seal and a cute pattern around the edge.
- Using a pizza cuter, cut out an egg shape and remove excess pastry.
- Poke about 10 holes in the top of the pastry with a fork so heat can escape.
- Brush the top sheet of puff pastry with the egg wash.
- Bake for 20-22 minutes or until the puff pastry is dark golden brown.
- In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar and heavy cream until smooth and creamy.
- Spread frosting across the pop tart and top with sprinkles.
- Allow the pop tart to cool 10 minutes or so minutes before slicing.
Notes
Substitutions:
- You can substitute puff pastry sheets for pie crusts
- You can also use cake frosting instead of making your own frosting
- Swap strawberry jam for any preferred flavor. (You can also use Brown Sugar Cream Cheese if you prefer that flavor pop tart!)
