Ingredients
Scale
- For the Dough:
- 2 cups Gluten-Free 1:1 Baking Flour
- 1 tbsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/2 cup Dairy-Free Stick Butter
- 1/4 cup Coconut Oil
- 6–8 tbsp Ice-Cold Water
- For the Filling:
- 1/2 cup Cane Sugar
- 1 tbsp Gluten-Free 1:1 Baking Flour
- 2 tbsp Matcha Powder
- For the Icing:
- 2 cups Powdered Sugar
- 2–4 tbsp Oat Milk
Instructions
- Prepare Dough: In a bowl, whisk together the gluten-free baking flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the dairy-free butter and coconut oil until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add ice-cold water gradually until the dough sticks together, then chill for 1 hour.
- Make Filling: In a separate bowl, combine cane sugar, gluten-free flour, and matcha powder.
- Roll Dough: After chilling, roll the dough out into two rectangles, each measuring 7½ x 10½ inches. Place one rectangle on a lined baking sheet, creating the bottom layer for your pop tart.
- Assemble Pop Tart: Evenly spread the matcha filling over the dough, wet the edges with water, and top with the second dough rectangle. Press to seal and use a fork to crimp the edges, ensuring no filling escapes. Poke holes in the top for steam to escape.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the assembled pop tart for about 30 minutes, or until lightly golden and firm to the touch.
- Cool and Ice: Once baked, let the pop tart cool completely. Prepare the icing by whisking powdered sugar, oat milk, and more matcha until smooth. Spread it generously over the cooled pop tart and allow to set before slicing.
Notes
- Optional: Drizzle some additional matcha icing for a decorative touch.
- Ensure to serve at room temperature for the best experience.
