Another nice benefit to using an air fryer in your camper is that the fryer won’t heat up the surrounding area the way an oven does. While the air fryer gives off a little heat while cooking, it’s nothing like the heat that radiates from an oven.

Homemade Air Fryer Pop Tarts
Equipment
- air fryer
- fork
- knife
- basting brush
Ingredients
- 1 package pre-made pie crust
- strawberry jelly
- vanilla frosting
- 1 egg
- sprinkles
Instructions
- Roll out the pie crust and cut out 3 inch rectangles. (I was able to get 5 rectangles out of each piece of crust dough.)
- Drop a heaping teaspoon of jelly in the center of half of the rectangles.
- Place a rectangle on top of each jelly-topped rectangle and press the edges together with a fork.
- Use a basting brush to each wash each rectangle.
- Place in air fryer and cook for 5-8 minutes at 375 F. Note: these cook up really fast, so after about 5 minutes, check out them each minute to make sure they don't burn. They are finished cooking when the pie crust has started to brown.
- Remove from air fryer and top with a layer of frosting and sprinkles.
- Enjoy and be mindful that the jelly filling will be hot!
That’s it!
Such a simple recipe and I love how versatile it is. You can easily change the flavors simply by swapping out the strawberry jelly for the flavor of your choice. The same goes for the frosting and sprinkles – if there’s a flavor you prefer, use that intsead.
