    Tips and Tricks for Making This Toaster Pastries Recipe: 

    • Make sure not to overfill your toaster pastry. Put just enough of each flavor.
    • For a more festive look, you can pour white sugar glaze and put some colorful sprinkles on top. I am sure kids will love it!
    • If you have time to wait and refrigerate your pastry crust, do it. This will improve the texture of the crust.

    How to Make this Toaster Pastries Recipe:

    Gather the ingredients for this Toaster pastries recipe and once the ingredients are all ready, let’s begin!

    Here’s how to make the pastry crust:

    In a large mixing bowl add the flour, shortening, sugar, salt and use a pastry cutter to blend it together until crumbly. Then in a small bowl mix the water and egg. Add it into the flour mixture and mix until it’s well combined:

    mixing butter to the flour for toaster pastries recipe

    Split the dough in half and chill both halves in the refrigerator until ready to use:

    cutting the toaster pastries dough in two portions

    However since we are going to use it immediately, sprinkle some flour over your working space.

    Roll out the pastry crust to about ⅛ inch thick and cut it into the sizes you want for the toaster pastries.:

    flattening out the dough using a rolling pin

    I’m going to use a ruler and a pizza cutter to help me keep my lines straight. (dimensions will be in the description box):

    cutting the dough with a pizza cutter and measuring it with a ruler

    Remember every pastry crust you slice,  make a matching one to cover it. Don’t forget to brush egg wash over the pastry crust before using it, just like so:

    brushing egg wash to the pastry crust and poking holes on them

    To make the Chocolate Chip Flavor:

    As I have mentioned above which is brush egg wash on the toaster pastries and poke the top pastry crust using a fork a couple of times.

    Then for the chocolate chip filling, in a large bowl, mix together the butter, sugar, and eggs until light and fluffy. 

    mixing ingredients for the chocolate chip filling

    Then add the salt,  all-purpose flour, and chocolate chips and mix until just combined:

    adding chocolate chips and flour

    Take about 1 tablespoon of chocolate chip dough and flatten it,  place it on the bottom of the pastry crust, and take the top pastry crust and cover it.  Don’t forget to use a fork to press around the edges of the toaster pastries:

    putting chocolate chip filling to individual pastry crusts

    To make the S’mores flavor:

    Brush egg wash on the toaster pastries to give it a nice golden color and poke the top pastry crust a couple of times to allow the heat to release so it won’t explode.

    Spread some marshmallow creme on the bottom toaster pastry, next add some chocolate spread: 

    putting the s'mores filling

    Then sprinkle graham cracker pieces.  Be careful not to add too much because sometimes less is more:

    sprinkling crushed graham to the smores filling

    covering the pastry crust and sealing it using a fork

    To make the Cranberry flavor:

    1. Repeat process as above.

     

    putting cranberry jam on each pastry crust

    Now bake the toaster pastry at 350F for about 17‐20 minutes.

    Frequently Asked Questions for the Toaster Pastries Recipe:

    Q: How many servings would this recipe do?

    A: This delicious and easy toaster pastry recipe could make six up to 10 pieces, depending on how big your slices are.

    Q: Do I need to poke the pastry crust? Will it not make the filling come out during baking?

    A: Yes, that step is necessary. It prevents the pastry from “exploding” while baking. Also, you have to poke holes that are not so big so the filling would just be intact while baking.
