  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup pure cane granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons peeled chopped pears (or 2 tablespoons pear puree/sauce)
  • 1/4 cup plain unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (or gluten free)
  • 1/2 cup oat flour (blend 1/2 cup oats in blender for flour)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the wildberry filling by blending berries, lemon juice, and sugar in a food processor until chunky. Add cornstarch and mix well; set aside to cool.
  2. Make the dough by mixing all-purpose flour, oat flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Cut in cold butter until crumbly, then add cold water gradually until the dough forms. Chill for 30 minutes.
  3. Roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thick on a floured surface and cut into rectangles.
  4. Assemble by placing filling on half of each rectangle, fold over, seal edges with a fork, and brush tops with egg wash.
  5. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. For icing, mix powdered sugar with milk and color as desired; drizzle over cooled pop-tarts.
