Cinnamon Brown Sugar Poptarts

First things first. I was going to make this post into a step-by-step. Because… Umm. I totally think you can't read and you need me to explain how to roll out dough, and spoon on a mixture of 3 ingredients. Too easy, I can't even DEAL! 

Anyways. Now that that's over with...

Awhile ago, I was thinking of things I miss… Depressing I know. Things I miss being Starbucks Gingerbread Lattes {if one of you would be every so kind as to figure out how to send me one, I'd love you forever.}, snow, walking around in town without someone coming up to me and saying "Taxi sistaaa!", the beach, Target, an oven that works, and… Poptarts. 

Growing up {heck. I'm still growing up. But ya know…} I used to eat Poptarts for breakfast all the time. The brown sugar cinnamon ones were my absolute favorite and I couldn't hold myself back from the ooey-gooey party goin' on inside. That is until I started caring about what I ate, exercising daily, ya da ya da ya da. 

Well today's recipe obviously is not a healthy one. BUT. It's totally delicious, ridiculously quick and easy, and comes together with only 5 ingredients! 

Winner, winner, cinnamon brown sugar Poptarts for dinner.

Cinnamon Brown Sugar Poptarts

recipe adapted from The Baker Chick

makes 6 large pastries

1 sheet puff pastry, thawed {or your favorite homemade pastry}

1/2 c. dark brown sugar

1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon

4 tsp. AP flour + more for rolling out the dough

sugar for sprinkling

Preheat oven to 375ºF. On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry until thin. Cut into 12 squares and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Evenly distribute the filling onto 6 of the squares.  Place a second square of dough on top of each of the ones with filling. Pinch the edges shut with a fork and cut of excess dough. Sprinkle with sugar and slit the tops. Bake for 15-25 minutes or until golden brown.
