2. Fill half of the rectangles with a teaspoon of jelly.
3. Top the jelly filled pie crusts with the remaining crusts. 
4. Press the edges together with the tines of a fork.
5. Brush an egg wash over each pop tart.
6. Air fry pop tarts for 5-8 minutes at 375ºF until they turn golden brown around the edges. (be careful, they burn easily)
7. Remove pop tarts from air fryer and spread vanilla icing and sprinkles on top.
8. Serve and enjoy!

Do I need to work in batches?

Yes, you will likely need to work in batches. If you are cooking in an air fryer oven, then you may be able to air fry the whole batch of pop tarts in one batch. Pop tarts should be spaced out in the air fryer to ensure they cook evenly.

How to store homemade pop tarts?

Homemade air fried pop tarts can be stored in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Can I use a frozen pie crust?

Yes, but you will want to defrost the pie crust to room temperature before using it.
