Description

Indulge in the ultimate guilt-free treat with these Raspberry Protein Pop Tarts! Packed with a protein-rich filling and bursting with the sweet-tart flavor of fresh raspberries, these homemade pastries make for a delightful snack or breakfast any time of day.


Ingredients

– 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

– 1/2 teaspoon salt

– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed

– 1/4 cup cold water

– 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder

– 1/4 cup granulated sugar

– 1 cup raspberry jam or preserves


Instructions

1. – In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut in the chilled butter using a pastry cutter or two forks until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

2. – Gradually add the cold water, mixing just until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

3. – Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

4. – On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to a 12×16-inch rectangle. Cut the dough into 8 rectangles, each about 4×6 inches.

5. – In a small bowl, mix the protein powder and sugar until combined.

6. – Place 4 of the dough rectangles on the prepared baking sheet. Spread about 2 tablespoons of raspberry jam onto each rectangle, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Sprinkle the protein-sugar mixture evenly over the jam.

7. – Top with the remaining 4 dough rectangles and use a fork to crimp and seal the edges.

8. – Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the pop tarts are golden brown. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For a sweeter filling, you can add a bit of extra sugar to the raspberry jam. These pop tarts can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
