STEP 4: For the filling, combine all cherry filling ingredients over low heat until it simmers and resembles a sauce. Remove and allow to cool.

STEP 5: To assemble, use half of pie crust and roll into a rectangle. Cut edges to make a square. Slice into rectangles and set aside leftover dough.

STEP 6: Place filling on half of the pastries, leaving room on the sides. Place another pastry on top and crimp edges to seal. Poke holes on top.

STEP 8: Take dough scraps, press together, wrap, and refrigerate. Remove and make more pop tarts. Discard any additional scraps that form.
