Mango Passionfruit Poptarts

Welcome to our weekly Foodie Friday link up! I’m linking up with Annmarie from the Fit Foodie Mama, Esther from Chocolate Runner Girl + Jess from Hello To Fit to create awesome healthy recipes each week! Today’s theme = Kitchen Cleanse!

This isn’t so much a cleanse more so as a “free for all” week! I’m actually super sad to almost be done using up this jam, but I suppose all good things must come to an end at some point!

Ever try making your own poptarts? I think these would likely be more visually appealing if the jam had been a different color than the phyllo dough, but alas! Rest assured, they still taste all sorts of amazing though, and they’re pretty simple to make!

Having a brush will make your life a whole lot easier though! I have another recipe using phyllo dough scheduled in February where a brush was in fact used, and it wasn’t as difficult then, so there’s that! (It might have been the increase in familiarity in using this dough too though.)

BUT ANYWAY.

These thankfully turned out well, despite being mildly labor-intensive (only because I think I froze/thawed/re-froze the dough one too many times…). I imagine this gets easier with practice! :D

  1. THIS IS BRILLIANT.
    I love phyllo, I dont’ know if I still have any left from last thanksgiving, but if I do….

    1. I know what you’ll be making if it’s still hanging out there! :P!

  2. Great way to use the phyllo! Makeshift poptart!

    1. Yes indeed! :P I haven’t had a real one in forever! :O

  3. You know, I always look at pop tarts at the store and think “don’t do it laura!” …. but making my own? I could totally get behind that

    I might swap out for cherry jam though (because it’s my favourite)

    1. This is probably sad, but I don’t think I’ve ever had cherry jam! I’m gonna have to try that! :P

  4. I used to LOVE poptarts growing up. Like love them to the extent that you’d never think I was a dietitian. I’d love to make my own though. These look so good!

    1. hehehe, I like the homemade variety more because you can do whatever you want for the filling! :]

  5. These are awesome! I haven’t yet made my own Poptarts but I’ve been seeing them popping up more and more at local bakeries and shops. I actually just had an apple cinnamon one the other day at my favorite local coffeehouse. I’m definitely inspired to make my own and I think Sienna would really get a kick out of them. I hope everything is going great with you!

    1. Ah, apple cinnamon would be so perfect for fall! ;]! I’m gonna have to try making that! *-*

      Things are going pretty well at the moment! I’m finishing OB this upcoming week though and am kindasorta apprehensive about starting inpatient service–I hope it goes well! :O

  6. These look fantastic! I’ve made my own Poptarts before, but never with phyllo– what a great idea!

    1. Ooo, what did you use? I like trying different variations! :D!

  7. Ahh this is so tropical! Homemade pop tarts are so delicious.
