Ingredients
  

For the Peach Puree Filling:

  • 2 cups fresh peaches, finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar, or raw cane sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder, or cassava flour for thickening

For the Almond Flour Pasty Base:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup tapioca flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup non-hydrogenated palm oil shortening
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar, or raw cane sugar
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 3-4 tablespoons coconut milk

For the Powdered Sugar Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar, or organic powdered coconut sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons coconut milk, to thin to desired consistency
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 teaspoons of your leftover peach puree, optional, for a lovely pastel peach color!

Instructions
 

Step 1: Make the Peach Puree Filling

  • In a small bowl, toss your diced peaches with lemon juice, cinnamon, and coconut sugar.
  • Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the arrowroot powder (or cassava flour).
  • Simmer for about 3–5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the peaches break down and the juices thicken into a glossy, jammy puree.
  • Remove from heat and let cool completely before assembling your pop-tarts (hot filling will melt your dough!).

Step 2: Make the Pastry Dough

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, and coconut sugar.
  • Cut in the palm oil shortening using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Stir in the maple syrup and 3 tablespoons of coconut milk until a cohesive dough forms. If it feels too crumbly, add the 4th tablespoon of coconut milk.
  • Chill the dough in the fridge for 15 minutes to make it easier to roll out.

Step 3: Assemble the Mini Pop-Tarts

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll out your chilled dough between two sheets of parchment paper until it is about 1/4-inch thick.
  • Use your favorite mini cookie cutters (rectangles, squares, or cute shapes) to cut out even numbers of dough pieces (you'll need a bottom and a top for each).
  • Spoon a tiny, measured amount of your cooled peach puree into the center of the bottom pieces, leaving a clean border around the edges.
  • Place the matching top dough piece over the filling. Use the tines of a fork to gently press and crimp the edges closed.

Step 4: Bake & Cool

  • Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and set.
  • Remove from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet.
  • Step 5: Glaze and Serve
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and coconut milk until smooth. (Stir in a tiny spoonful of the peach puree if you want a pretty pastel glaze!)
  • Drizzle or spread the glaze over the cooled mini pop-tarts.
  • Enjoy immediately, or store in an airtight container in the fridge!
