1/2 tsp salt
1 cup vegan cold butter
2-3 tablespoons cold water
1 tbsp charcoal powder (optional)
Icing
1/4 cup coconut oil (solid but soft at room temperature)
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp vanilla extract

1. Mix flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl.

3. Add coconut cream and cold water and mix with your hands.
4. Roll into a ball and cut in half. Place both pieces of dough in the fridge for 1 hour.
5. Place 1 dough ball over a saran wrap, add a little flour on the top, and roll with a pin into a large rectangle.
6. Cut out a 9x12in rectangle and then divide it into 9 squares.
7. Carefully lift the saran wrap from under the squares. Be careful, this can be tricky. Then, place the square pieces on a parchment paper.
8. Put the 9 pieces into the freezer and repeat the same process with the second half of the dough.
9. Fill your pop tarts with whatever you desire, seal them with the top layer of dough, pressing edges with a fork.
10. Brush with milk, then poke holes in each pop tart with a fork so that the tarts can breathe.
11. Bake at 350F/175C for about 30 minutes.
