To prepare these toaster pastries, simply place them in a toaster and toast on a low setting until warm and slightly golden. Be cautious as they can brown quickly. Alternatively, they can be heated in a toaster oven or microwave for a few seconds. Heating them makes the pastry softer and the filling warm and gooey. They are best enjoyed immediately after heating. Some people also enjoy them at room temperature as a simple sweet bite.
