To prepare, simply place one pastry into the toaster slots or onto a baking sheet if using a toaster oven. Toast on a low to medium setting until the crust is golden brown and the filling is warm. Be careful not to over-toast, as the filling can become very hot. Allow the pastry to cool slightly before handling and consuming. They are best enjoyed warm, straight from the toaster.
