Prepare the compote by placing berries in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 5-8 minutes with a lid on, stirring occasionally and smashing down with a spoon. Add a few teaspoons of sugar to sweeten if preferred. I added 1 tsp. raw sugar. Transfer to a bowl to cool.
To prepare crust, mix flour and salt in a large bowl, then cut in butter with a fork or pastry cutter until well combined.
Using a tablespoon, drizzle cold water over the mixture and mix with a wooden spoon until it starts to form a dough. I added 2-3 Tbsp - you may need to add up to 5 Tbsp. It should be moist enough to form into a ball, but not too sticky to knead. Add more flour if it gets too wet.
Turn onto a floured surface, shape into a disc, and then use a rolling pin to roll into a large rectangle. I find it helpful to place a sheet of plastic wrap over the dough while rolling to reduce cracking.
Cut into 12 equal squares (not rectangles) and carefully transfer each to the baking sheet.
Place about 1 Tbsp of filling onto 6 of the squares, leaving a 1/4 inch border to seal the edges. Then use your finger to dot water around the edges so the two squares stick together. Top the squares with their matching halves and then seal lightly with a fork.
Poke a few holes in the top of each, rub a tiny bit of vegan butter on top of each, sprinkle with raw sugar and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Let cool for a few minutes, then top with glaze if desired. Not necessary, but recommended for sweeter pop tarts.
