Description
A cozy, crowd-pleasing twist on classic apple pie, wrapped in soft tortillas and baked until golden.
Ingredients
- 5 medium apples, peeled and thinly sliced (about 6 cups)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons flour or 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 8–10 small flour tortillas (6–8 inch)
- 3–4 tablespoons melted butter for brushing
- Cinnamon sugar for sprinkling
- Caramel sauce or glaze (1 cup powdered sugar mixed with 2–3 tablespoons milk and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla)
Instructions
- In a skillet, melt butter and sauté the sliced apples with brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and flour/cornstarch for 6–8 minutes until tender.
- Warm tortillas to make them pliable.
- Spoon 1/4 cup of the apple filling into each tortilla, roll seam-side down, and place in a buttered 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Brush with melted butter, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes until edges brown and filling is bubbly.
- Allow to rest for 5–10 minutes, then drizzle with caramel sauce or glaze before serving.
Notes
Use a mix of firm apples like Honeycrisp and Granny Smith for best flavor. Adjust sweetness based on apple variety.
