PB&J Pastry Tarts

No offense to the devotees of packaged pastries, but nothing says love like these homemade “popped art” beauties. Make these jammy PB&J Pastry Tarts for your sweetie this Valentine's Day. It’s also ok to just call it Wednesday. 

WHAT YOU NEED (makes 6 pastries):  

- 1 package premade pie dough (usually contains 2 sheets of dough) 

- 4 Tbsp Big Spoon Roasters nut butter(s) of choice – we chose Peanut Butter with Wildflower Honey  

- 2-3 Tbsp Jam of choice (check out our Featured Jam series!)  

- 1 cup Confectioner’s sugar (+ extra if needed)  

- ½ tsp Vanilla extract  

- 1 ½ tsp Plant milk of choice  

- Sprinkles  

Optional:   

- Food coloring  
  

WHAT TO DO: 

1. Roll out the pie dough to be roughly 12 inches long and 10 inches wide. If it’s circular, trim the excess to form a 10”x12” rectangle. Repeat with the other sheet of dough.  

1. Cut each sheet of dough into 6 equal rectangles.   

1. In the middle of 6 rectangles (1 total sheet of dough), dollop about 2 teaspoons of nut butter and 1-1 ½ teaspoon(s) of jam.  

1. Using a pastry brush, brush water around the edges of the filled rectangles.   

1. Top each filled rectangle with another piece of dough and use a fork to crimp and seal the edges.  

1. Bake in a 400F oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown.  

1. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.  

1. Mix 1 cup confectioner’s sugar with ½ tsp vanilla extract and 1 ½ tsp of plant milk. Add food coloring if desired. Add extra confectioner’s sugar if your icing is too runny.  

1. Spread icing on the top of each pastry and top with sprinkles.  

Enjoy!
