Add 1 teaspoon of strawberry banana jam on top of the cream cheese mixture.

Fold the other half of the pastry over the mixture and press down with your hands to seal.

Crimp the edges with a fork.

Brush the top with egg wash and make a few slits on top to vent.

Bake at 350°F for 35 to 40 minutes.

In separate bowls, mix 2 tablespoons of milk with 1.5 tablespoons of banana powder in one and 1.5 tablespoons of strawberry powder in the other.

Pour the banana and strawberry mixtures into the reserved cream cheese mixture to create a glaze.

Drizzle the glaze over the pastries using a zester.

Top with freeze-dried strawberries and freeze-dried bananas.
