Pop Goes the Tart

Flaky homemade dough and store-bought jam combine forces in my copycat pop tart recipe. When I was a kid, I had an affinity for prepackaged pastries filled with fruity goodness and designed to slide down the gullet of a toaster. A few years ago, while feeling nostalgic, I picked some up at the local megamart and realized they tasted...horrible. Clearly, my tastes had changed. Instead of giving up on the breakfast treat I once so enjoyed, I decided to make them myself. After much trial and error, here's the result — and a fine result it is. Both U.S. standard and metric measurements are listed, but for consistent results, go metric.Photo by Lynne Calamia
