Ingredients
  

DOUGH:

  • 1 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 3/4 cup almond flour or ground up pork rinds
  • 1 large egg

FILLING:

FROSTING:

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • To make the dough, place the mozzarella and the cream cheese in a heat safe bowl and microwave for 1-2 minutes or until the cheese is entirely melted. Stir well.
  • Add the almond flour and egg and using a hand mixer, combine well. Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes to help with forming the dough.
  • Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Place one ball of the dough on the greased piece of parchment paper that is on a baking sheet, and pat out with your hands to make a small rectangle shape, about 2 inches by 3 inches. Repeat with remaining balls of dough.
  • Make the filling by placing the raspberries, cream cheese, and natural sweetener in a food processor and pulse to combine well. Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking. Place this mixture in the center of 4 pieces of rectangles, try to cover as much dough as possible, leaving 1 centimeter on all sides. Place 4 unfilled rectangles of dough and top onto the filled rectangles. Use a fork to seal the edges shut.
  • Place the baking sheet with the Pop Tarts in the oven.
  • Cook for 8 minutes. Optional: remove from oven and use a fork to score edges again to look like a traditional pop tart.
  • Place back into the oven to cook another 2 minutes or until the pop tarts are golden brown and dough is fully cooked. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile make the frosting by placing the softened cream cheese, natural sweetener in a small bowl, stir to loosen the cream cheese. Add just enough almond milk to make a frosting. If it gets too thin, add a tablespoon of natural sweetener, and if it is too thick, add a splash of almond milk. Add natural food coloring if desired. Place into a piping bag or small ziplock. Cut a tiny corner in the Ziploc and pipe over each pop tart.
  • Once the pop tarts are cool, drizzle glaze over.
  • Store extras in air tight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Store extras in air tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Can be frozen for up to a month.
