Ingredients
- 6 flour tortillas (8-inch size)
- 1 (21 oz) can apple pie filling or 2 1/2 cups homemade apple filling
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Spoon about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of apple pie filling down the center of each tortilla and roll tightly. Place seam-side down in the baking dish.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Stir in brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and vanilla extract. Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring until smooth and slightly thickened.
- Pour the warm cinnamon sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas.
- Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, or until golden and bubbling.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
Notes
- Warm tortillas briefly in the microwave to make rolling easier.
- Add chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts for added texture.
- Try caramel sauce in place of the cinnamon sauce for a richer version.
- These are best enjoyed warm and fresh from the oven.
- Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or drizzle with cream cheese glaze for extra indulgence.
