Store-bought poptarts are fantastic on-the-go treats that are great for busy morning breakfasts and after school snacks. Like many foods of that ilk, they definitely aren’t the healthiest foods out there, but they suffice every once in a while. Especially since kiddos seem to love them so much. If your family goes particularly crazy over the toasted treats, you may be happy to learn that you can create them all on your own in your kitchen with very little effort. From delicious jams to the ever popular brown sugar, these poptarts are about to save you tons of money and give you a major peace of mind.
