Homemade Apple Pie Filling or 1 (21 ounce) can of apple pie filling
6 (8 inch) flour tortillas
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for topping
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup water
Instructions:
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously buttering a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
If necessary, warm the tortillas in the microwave to make them more pliable for rolling.
Lay out each tortilla and spoon a heaping 1/4 cup of apple pie filling off-center on each. Evenly sprinkle a dash of cinnamon over the filling.
Carefully roll up the tortillas and place them seam side down in the prepared baking dish.
In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
Pour the hot sugar sauce over the enchiladas. If you like, sprinkle a little more cinnamon on top for extra flavor.
Let the enchiladas sit for 45 minutes, allowing them to soak up the sauce.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.
Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, and drizzle with caramel sauce to your heart’s content.
These Apple Pie Enchiladas promise a delightful twist on the classic apple pie, offering a sweet treat that’s sure to please both critical guests and satisfy the sweet tooth of the younger crowd. It’s a celebration of fall’s bounty, wrapped up in a cozy, indulgent dessert that’s perfect for any family occasion.
