Divide dough into halves, refrigerating the portions you are not working with yet.
Take first 1/2 of dough and roll out onto a floured surface.
Cut into rectangles using a sharp knife.(It is helpful to make a template the size you wish your pop-tarts to be, from cardboard or heavy plastic, so they will be a uniform size.)

|
|
|
Spread on tbsp. of jam on one half of the rectangles, leaving a half inch or so on the edges without jam.
Cover with the other half of the rectangles.
Crimp edges with a fork.

Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 - 15 minutes or until the pie dough is evenly browned and cooked through.
Cool completely and place into zip baggies for storage until you are ready to eat them.
Repeat with remaining dough and jam until it is all completed.
Variation- Glaze pop tarts with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar, milk and vanilla extract. Be sure to let glaze dry hard before placing pop tarts into storage baggies.
