How to make apple pie enchiladas for the fall season
A great way to put a twist on your regular apple pie recipe
A great start to the autumn season is a sweet treat. There’s nothing better than apple pie this time of year with the leaves turning orange and the air chilling. But who has the time to make an actual apple pie? This is a way to bake the same warm, delicious sensation that is an apple pie without all the hassle: the apple pie enchilada.
Here are some things you need to get started:
1 (21 ounces) can apple pie filling
6 (or as many as you want to use) (8 inch) flour tortillas
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅓ cup margarine or butter
½ cup granulated white sugar
½ cup packed brown sugar
½ cup water
Firsts thing first, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Then spoon fruit evenly onto all tortillas and sprinkle with cinnamon. Roll up tortillas and place seam side down on lightly greased 8×8 baking pan.
Bring margarine, sugars, and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring constantly for 3 minutes.
Pour sauce evenly over tortillas; sprinkle with extra cinnamon on top if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
If you want to maximize the number of servings, cut the 6 large tortillas in half to serve 12. These are delicious — they tend to be gone in a matter of seconds!
