Who ate pop tarts as a kid? Growing up, my mom rarely bought processed, sugar-filled breakfasts or snacks so, whenever I got my hands on a Pop Tart, it was as if I struck gold.

Now, that I am older and a lot more conscious of what I put into my body, I wanted to recreate the old childhood favorite. A pop tart healthy enough that I could every morning. I began experimenting, and once I realized how easy it was to make my own, I began making homemade pop tarts all the time.

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Course Breakfast
Servings 4 pop tarts

Ingredients 

  • 1 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup tapioca starch
  • pinch of salt
  • 4 tbsp coconut oil solid or grass-fed butter cut into cubes
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup

Filling

  • 12 oz blueberries
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp tapioca starch

Glaze, optional

  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp tapioca starch
  • 2 tbsp blueberry filling

Instructions 

  • Prepare the filling first, by heating blueberries and maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and continue cooking until blueberries begin to burst. Stir in tapioca starch and cook another 3-4 minutes, or until blueberry mixture begins to thicken. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Add almond flour, tapioca starch, and salt to the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine. Add coconut oil or butter and pulse until a sand-like consistency.
  • Add egg and maple syrup. Process until a dough forms.
  • Transfer dough onto your work surface that has been lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Roll out dough to about 1/4-in thick. Cut into 8 5x3-in rectangles. Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of filling onto half of the rectangles, then cover with remaining half. Use a fork to crimp the edges together on all sides.
  • Transfer the pop tarts to the prepared baking sheet and bake 15-20 minutes, until golden. Cool.
  • To make the glaze, add coconut sugar and tapioca starch to a high power blender. Begin on low speed and gradually increase to high and blend until light and powdery consistency.
  • Transfer powdered sugar to a bowl and whisk together with blueberry filling.
  • Spoon glaze over each pop tart and allow to dry.
  • Store pop tarts in an air tight container for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.

    Love, Love, Love!
    I’m not one to commit much, HOWEVER these are sooo good! I’m eating one right now. I made these today for breakfast, and my family LOVES them!
    I highly recommend!

    1. Hi Melissa! You can try replacing the egg with a flax egg. I’ve never tried it before, but it should work. Next time I make them, I’ll try using an egg substitute and let you know how it turns out!

  2. These are amazing! The dough wasn’t sticky, the filling was thick and they held together perfectly! Way better than the original pop tart! Thanks for the recipe…I will be making these again!

    1. I haven’t tried using corn starch but, I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. You may need to start with 1/2 cup cornstarch and then work your way up from there until the dough forms.

    Hi! This was my first attempt at gluten-free/paleo baking. I think they turned out pretty well but I’m wondering if I did the dough right. It was pretty sticky while I was rolling it out (ended up covering it with plastic wrap while rolling and that worked pretty well), and half of the tarts cracked and bled blueberry juice during baking. I used butter this time, and might try coconut oil or vegetable shortening (!?) next time. Any tips for a better dough?

    1. Hi Sally! I’m so happy that your first attempt went well!! You can dust the dough with some tapioca starch while rolling it out if it is too sticky. You can also add some in a tbsp at a time if you feel that your dough isn’t sturdy enough. This will probably prevent the cracking too.

    1. Hi Kiana, I haven’t tried replacing the almond flour with coconut flour in this recipe because coconut flour absorbs a lot of liquid and it will produce a much different dough. You can try using oat flour if you aren’t on a strict Paleo diet.

  4. Love this! I never buy pop tarts now either and we live in the middle of nowhere, so I don’t know that my kids would even know what they were – the younger ones at least. But they would love these!!
