Pop tarts are imported snacks made from pastry dough that can be eaten as a breakfast menu, or as a snack. Even though pop tarts are delicious eaten right away, warming them up first will make the taste a thousand times better! To find out more tips, keep reading this article, OK!
Step
Method 1 of 3: Warming Pop Tarts with a Toaster
Step 1. Remove the pop tart from its packaging
Generally, pop tarts are packaged in aluminum foil, and one package contains two pop tarts. If you want, you can warm one or both of the pop tarts at once, depending on the amount you want to eat.
If you don't want to finish the second pop tart, please put it in a plastic clip bag so that the pop tart doesn't go stale
Step 2. Turn the toaster on its lowest setting
Because the texture is not too thick, pop tarts are very easy to burn if warmed to high temperatures. Therefore, make sure you use the lowest possible temperature to keep the pop tarts warm, but not scorched.
If you want a very crunchy pop tart, please use the highest temperature in the toaster. However, make sure you keep an eye on the process to prevent the pop tart from burning
Step 3. Warm the pop tart in the toaster for 1 minute
Insert the pop tart into the hole provided, then set the grill temperature to the lowest setting. In most toasters, the lowest temperature is generally equivalent to 1 minute. Keep a close eye on the condition of the pop tarts and remove them from the toaster immediately if the edges of the pop tarts or the frosting on the surface start to look scorched.
If your toaster doesn't have a low temperature setting, please set the timer to 1 minute and pick up the pop tarts manually
Step 4. Let the pop tart sit for 30 seconds to cool down
Don't take the hot pop tart right away so you don't hurt your hand! Instead, let the pop tart sit for about 30 seconds before taking it.
Step 5. Take the pop tart with bare hands, then place the pop tart on a plate
Gently grasp the top of the pop tart and place it on a plate. Since the pop tart has been sitting for a while, it should be cool enough to eat.
Warning:
Never use a knife or fork to remove pop tarts from the toaster. Remember, metal is a conductor of electricity, so sticking a fork or knife into a toaster could give you an electric shock!
Method 2 of 3: Warming the Pop Tart in the Microwave
Step 1. Remove the pop tart from its packaging
Generally, pop tarts are packaged in aluminum foil. Before warming it up in the microwave, make sure the pop tart has been removed from the package, OK! In particular, you can warm one to two pop tarts at a time in the microwave, depending on the amount you want to eat.
Warning:
Putting aluminum foil or other metal in the microwave is extremely dangerous and can start a fire!
Step 2. Place the pop tarts on a microwave-safe heat-resistant dish
If necessary, check the back of the dish to make sure it has a “microwave-safe” label or other marker indicating that the dish is microwave safe. Place the pop tart in the center of the plate so that the entire surface warms evenly.
If you don't have a heat-resistant plate, place the pop tarts on paper towels
Step 3. Warm the pop tart in the microwave for 3 seconds
Since pop tarts are generally fairly thin, it doesn't take too long to warm them up. In particular, pop tarts only need to be warmed for 3 seconds in the microwave.
Really, 3 seconds is enough time to warm up a pop tart? As hard as it sounds, it actually only takes about 3 seconds to warm the entire surface of the pop tart
Step 4. Wait for about 10 seconds before popping the tart
Most likely, the pop tart will be hot enough to warm up in the microwave. Therefore, let the pop tart sit for about 10 seconds before removing it from the microwave. After 10 seconds, please take out the plate of pop tarts and eat the contents!
If the dish is very hot after being warmed in the microwave, remember to wear heat-resistant gloves to remove it
Method 3 of 3: Warming Pop Tarts in an Oven Toaster
Step 1. Remove the pop tart from its packaging
If you use a toaster oven, you can actually warm both pop tarts at the same time. However, make sure the pop tart has been removed from the aluminum foil before placing it in the toaster oven, OK!
If you don't want to finish the second pop tart, please put it in a plastic clip bag and store it for later eating
Step 2. Place the pop tarts on the middle rack of the toaster oven
Make sure the frosted side is facing up so that the surface of the pop tart doesn't burn when warmed. If your toaster oven has three or more racks, it's a good idea to place the pop tarts on the center rack of the toaster oven so that they cook evenly.
If your toaster oven only has two shelves, place the pop tarts on the top shelf
Step 3. Set an alarm or timer at 1 or 3 minutes
Make sure the oven toaster setting is set to “toasting/baking” mode. Then, turn on the toaster oven and wait until the pop tart texture is crisp.
The longer the pop tart is baked, the crunchier it will be
Step 4. Take the pop tart with the help of tongs
Since the pop tarts are still very hot, don't take them with your bare hands. Instead, transfer the pop tarts from the toaster oven onto a serving plate with the help of tongs or a spatula. Enjoy this delicious pop tart while it's warm!
Tip:
If the pop tarts are not crispy enough or not hot enough, please reheat them in the toaster oven for 1 minute.
