When my out-of-town grandchildren recently came for an overnight visit, I had fun making some special dishes for breakfast the next morning.
I squirted yogurt from a ziploc bag onto waxed paper to make little 'droplets' and froze them.
They are refreshing and fun. But I didn't get a photo of them.

I also didn't get a photo of the pop tarts themselves, BUT...I did get photos of my cutsie granddaughters enjoying them.
These pastries are very simple to make and you can change them up however you'd like by using any favorite kind of jam, or nutella?
The frosting and sprinkles were a necessary part of the fun!
I just wish I had taken time to tint it pink (princess color you know!=)
I just adore the 'family fun' type recipes I find at Everyday Mom's Meals.
She does Kid-Friendly meals alot. And I love them all.
With a little supervision, older kids could make these themselves.

For those of you who were use to seeing our Claira Ruth with curly hair...she's lost it as she's gotten older.
What gorgeous eyes & sweet smile our 'Kaity Bel' has.
(She's always had straight hair=)

HOMEMADE POP TARTS
1 pkg. refrigerated pie crusts
Strawberry Jam
Strawberry Jam
(I used Polaner no sugar added)
1 can strawberry or vanilla frosting
sprinkles
Preheat oven to 400. Cut dough into 3-inch rectangles. On one side, spread jam leaving about 1/2-inch on all sides. Top with another rectangle. Using a fork, crimp the edges to close. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet (or spray with cooking oil) and bake for 9-12 minutes until slightly browned. Remove and transfer to a cooling rack and place in fridge for about 5-7 minutes. (This will make frosting much easier...and we don't want those precious babes burning their mouths!). Spread frosting on; top with sprinkles.

Precious granddaughters! Pop Tarts are a big deal in my house. I wonder if I could fool everyone by making home-made?
