How to cook deliciously - Vegan Homemade Pop-Tarts
1. Stage
Scoop tablespoons of shortening onto a plate and chill in the freezer for 10 minutes.
2. Stage
Meanwhile, combine flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl and chill for 5 to 10 minutes.
3. Stage
Crumble shortening into the flour mixture with your fingers until no large clumps remain. Add 1/2 cup ice water to the mixture, a little at a time, until dough reaches a shaggy consistency. Knead on the countertop a couple of times to combine. The dough should appear a little too dry.
4. Stage
Place dough back into the bowl or a large container and cover with a lid. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
5. Stage
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
6. Stage
Roll dough into a large rectangle, about 1/8-inch thick. Cut into twelve 4x6-inch rectangles.
7. Stage
Place about 1 1/2 tablespoon of strawberry jam in the center of 6 of the rectangles. Brush the edges with water and top with the other dough halves. Seal the edges of each tart with a fork. Trim the edges for neater tarts, if desired.
8. Stage
Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are lightly browned, 15 to 25 minutes. Let cool, 20 to 30 minutes.
9. Stage
Combine powdered sugar, almond milk, and food coloring in a bowl for icing. Drizzle icing over the cooled tarts.
