Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Step 2
Whisk together the butter, agave nectar, and vanilla.
Step 3
Add the almond and tapioca flours and sea salt to the bowl and fold together with a spatula.
Step 4
Roll out the dough between two pieces of parchment until it’s about 1/8 – 1/4 inch thick.
Step 5
Slide a cutting board or baking sheet under the parchment paper so the dough stays flat and place in the freezer for 20 minutes.
Step 6
Once the dough has chilled in the freezer, use a pizza cutter, knife or cookie cutter to cut into shapes. I cut mine into playing card-sized rectangles (about 2 inches wide x 3 inches long).
Step 7
Place 9 rectangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment. If the dough gets soft, roll it out and place it back in the freezer for a few minutes.
Step 8
Spread 1 tablespoon of jam on 9 of the rectangles, focusing it in the center.
Step 9
Place another rectangle on top and seal the edges by pressing down with the back of a fork. If needed, keep a small bowl of water close by to dip the fork in so it doesn’t stick to the dough as you press the edges.
Step 10
Optional: Whisk an egg in a small bowl and lightly brush the top of the pop tarts. This will give it a shiny look, but not necessary to the recipe.
Step 11
Bake the pop tarts for about 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges.
Step 12
Let the pop tarts cool for a couple minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer to a wire rack.
Step 13
While the pop tarts are cooling, whisk together the glaze. You want the glaze to be drizzle-able, so add more/less water as needed.
Step 14
Drizzle on the pop tarts, sprinkle with sprinkles, and serve!
