Pumpkin Spice Pop Tarts + Giveaway!

September 29, 2014 By Phillip @ SouthernFATTY.com 115 Comments

Pumpkin Spice Pop Tarts

After finally venturing into the pumpkin spice world with our recent Homemade Pumpkin Spice mix, I decided that I would try to include it into another favorite flashback recipe of mine– Pop Tarts. Everyone that is anyone has delicious dreams of getting their favorite Pop Tart handed to them on their way out of the door when they were off to school when they were younger. Homemade Pumpkin Spice Pop Tarts with Brown Sugar Cinnamon Frosting are going to be your favorite fall flashback treat that you can recreate in your very own kitchen.

 

[Giveaway has ended].

 

I am notorious for making a massively huge mess in the kitchen when I cook. That means that I am going to love anything that makes cleaning up a lot easier. I have become addicted to silicone mats since I certainly enjoy baking more than anything else in the kitchen. Cookies, pastries (like these Pumpkin Spice Pop Tarts), and even boiling hot melted sugar like we had in our Lemon Drop Candies. No scraping anything off of a pan. A simple wipe on the cookie sheet and it’s clean.

 

My favorite baking mat use is when it comes to cooking in batches. You know what I mean… When you make a bowl of cookie dough and have to dirty several pans to get all of the batches in. No. No, no. I just cook one batch, remove and carefully take off the mat, put a new mat on and repeat. So simple. Now that I am rambling, back to the recipe! (Non)Stick with us to enter to win one!

 

Pastry Dough

 

The most important part of making a good, homemade pop tart has to be mastering the flaky, somewhat dense pastry dough. If you remember our post on homemade Puff Pastry Dough, you’ll know that the butter is where its at. You have to keep things cool enough and mixed in a way that lets the butter just stick around in tiny little crumbles. Those butter balls will keep layers of dough from binding together and leave you with the flaky, delicious pocket that you are craving.

 

Homemade Pumpkin Spice Mix

 

The fall-flavor packed pumpkin filling couldn’t be any easier. Pumpkin and a bit of our Homemade Pumpkin Spice Mix. Annnnnd, done. If you’re feeling adventurous, why not save some of the innards from your first pumpkin carving extravaganza and make your own pumpkin puree. Otherwise, canned raw pumpkin works great.

Now that I am getting (slowly) into the pumpkin everything madness, I am going to have to try to recreate some of my favorite recipes with a bit of the spice blend. Y’all are going to have to give me some ideas! I’ve been out of this pumpkin game for years while everyone else has been going crazy on it. Pumpkin carving excluded, of course. I’ve got that game down.

 

Crimping Pastry Sides

 

The most terrible thing about baking is when you create these beautifully composed pastries, bake them, and they just fall apart when you try to move them to cool. I can’t tell you how many blog post ideas I have had and was certain they would be perfect, just to find out that my own poor planning in not using a baking mat in the beginning resulted in a ruined result. Those almost always end up in a bag in the freezer for ice cream mix-ins. Not a total loss, but still frustrating.

 

Homemade Pop Tarts Ready To Bake

 

After I cut the pastry rectangles, I assembled them completely on the mats. I was easily about to move them around if I needed to, could easily crimp the edges without worrying about the pastries moving around or any paper underneath tearing, etc. Crimping the pastries is critical to keeping all of that warm pumpkin inside. It doesn’t hurt that it gives it a cute little border, either.

 

Homemade Pop Tarts Ready To Bake

 

If you’ve ever eaten the unfrosted (gasp!) variety of Pop Tarts, although I’m not even sure why anyone would, then you will have noticed the little holes all over the top of the pastries. These are critical to letting the ghosts (or steam, if you may) escape so the tarts stay mostly unpopped. I guess that’s sorta odd… They are called Pop Tarts, but are strictly kept unpopped. Hmmm. The more you know, eh?

 

Baked Homemade Pop Tarts

 

Look. At. Those. Beauties! How delicious do those look? I prefer to bake these to just a very slight golden color. I don’t go for the typical all golden that I usually would prefer with a pastry. It just wouldn’t seem as authentic unless the pouch had a bit of a dense texture. Baking them to a darker golden state seems to just not match up that same pastry texture that you would get out of the box.

 

Brown Sugar Cinnamon Glaze

 

Cooled directly on the baking mats, I was ready to add the best part. Brown sugar cinnamon frosting glaze. Without a frosting glaze, I just don’t see these as Homemade Pop Tarts. You wouldn’t catch me alive eating my favorite strawberry pop tarts without frosting. Never.  Especially with these pumpkin spice filled gouls, the bit of sweetness is really needed. Then again, I don’t think you’ll ever find me saying that a bit more sugar is a bad thing…

 

Pumpkin Spice Pop Tarts

 

I was never one of those kids (or adults) that preferred my Pop Tarts warm. Sometimes a quick zap in the microwave, but I can’t ever remember a time that I put them in an actual toaster. With that said, I prefer these at room temperature. Sadly, I actually only got to try one of them myself. The rest were nabbed too quickly from outside of my office. Amazing how quickly your food disappears once you start feeding the work animals…

 

Pumpkin Spice Pop Tarts

 

This will certainly be one of my new fall favorites on the must-bake list. Along with the obvious perfect grab-n-go breakfast, these would make for perfect Halloween party treats. Enjoy, y’all!

    These look delicious! Nice way to integrate a favorite fall flavor into a childhood treat. And I agree about the icing… a pop tart with no icing is just sad.

      What kind of mother doesn’t give their children frosted pop tarts?! 🙂

    Thanks for the chance — this is an awesome idea. I love parchment paper but it does feel so wasteful — what a great solution. THANK YOU. Either way — can’t wait to try the recipe. YUM.

    If I won, I’d definitely make some homemade Poptarts too! I’m a sucker for Poptarts, but they are so full of empty calories and perservatives, so I’d like to try some homemade ones!

      Seriously. These homemade ones are sooooo much better! I’m excited to try it with some different fillings later on.

      LOVE that stuff! As a Southern boy, I grew up (and still do!) getting a huge bag of the best peanut brittle evaaaah from my Aunt. I’m gonna have to make some tonight, I think. You’ve sparked my craving again!

    If I won this, I would make cookies. Cookies are what I do, and the guys at the office are waiting for another batch to be delivered!

    This looks so good, I can’t wait to try it at home! I wouldn’t even know where to begin on using the baking mat, cookies, pop tarts, working with chocolates ( a caterer i work with sometimes used it to make chocolate candies and he would let the chocolate drip on the mat and then wipe it up with a icing spatula and do it again). I am such a dessert person and have been working with Southern Fatty recipes, like the Bourbon Blackberry cupcakes. Great Picture of the pastry dough too!

    Hello! I found you on Instagram! And I’m glad I did because I needed something unique and October-ish to make for our upcoming October “food day” at work. I’ve always wanted to make my own Pop Tarts and this is the perfect chance for me to finally make them! On the silicone mat, of course. 🙂
    Yours look sooo good! I hope mine turn out all right!
    Following you on Instagram and have signed up for you email list!

    love silicone baking mats! They are so much easier to use for just about everything bake-wise! And everyone in the office loves the southern fatty blog and instagram – we go check it when the work madness becomes too much and we need a break! 🙂

    I am a dessert freak. I grew up in a rural area that had some excellent home cooking. I would use this mat to make most baked goods. Well, I probably won’t, but the partner will.

    I used to make giant pop tarts. They were the size of a cookie sheet! I will have to make your pumpkin pop tarts. They sound soooo yummy!

    NICE pic showing the butter bits in the pastry! As an idea for you, I made my own pumpkin spice creamer for my coffee yesterday. Are you a coffee drinker? I like mine iced, and the creamer still doesn’t give quite enough sweetness for me, so a bit of gingerbread syrup helped with that. Love fall flavors!

      Thanks! That step is critical to pastries. I am one of those insane coffee lovers. Drink it allllll day! *jitters* Not quite sure I am high enough on the pumpkin spice loving ladder to drink it yet (tried a pumpkin spice cappuccino right after I made it, and it was good), but that gingerbread syrup sounds delicious!
