It’s ‘fantasy’ week here in my house as part of our themed summer weeks. And to kick thoughts off, I thought I would start us off with some Rainbow Unicorn Poptarts! These poptarts aren’t your usually run-of-the-mill poptarts. I mean, obviously… look at them!

They sort of give a new meaning to ‘eat the rainbow’, don’t they?

Even though my kid isn’t the biggest fan (at all) of poptarts, I figured with some rainbow inspiration, maybe she would give them another chance, right? Right?!

Hah! Nope. Guess I’ll have to eat these magical poptarts all myself. You don’t see me complaining about that though, do you?

Baking and especially making my own pie dough has been a fear of time off and on through the years. And even though we’re getting into summer, I’m still trying my hand at baking more and more. I’ve got to say, my initial plan was to get pre-made pie dough and just color it and move along. BUT. I really wanted to try and make some pie dough myself. So. Here we are.

I was honestly surprised and delighted with how easy it was to make the dough. A few simple ingredients and that’s about it.

I filled our magical poptarts with strawberry jam, just because that’s totally my jam. Heh. Heh. But really you can use any sort of jam or filling of your choice in these poptarts.

Now that I know the ease of making my own pie dough, watch out world! There’s going to be a lot more pie dough inspired treats now!
