I started making them back then except I took a much easier approach to it. I never tried making them with the homemade pastry or the filling she makes. I use store bought pie crust (the cheap is just as good as the Pillsbury) and a jar of whatever flavor fruit preserve we are in the mood for. I did try using my own pie crust recipe once but My Love says that he likes the store bought better and even though I am a homemade junkie, I agree. All you have to do is roll out the pie crust, cut whatever shape you want out, place them on a pan, add filling, cover with another cut out, press edges, poke holes in the top, brush with egg wash and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. VERY easy and DELISH!! I make them ALL the time and they are a GREAT, little snack for everyone, especially My Love!! Here are a few pics from my latest batch:

Homemade Pop-Tarts @Prudent Baby
While visiting Prudent Baby (http://www.prudentbaby.com/) a while back, I saw a post Jamie (buy her book, http://prudentadvice.com/) had done on making homemade pop-tarts (http://www.prudentbaby.com/2010/05/homemade-pop-tarts.html). The recipe Jamie used was from Smitten Kitchen (http://smittenkitchen.com/) and looked super easy and delish!! Te best part is that they are MUCH healthier than the ones you buy in the store. YAY!!
