How to Make Apple Pie Enchiladas

Quick Overview

Wrap apple pie filling in tortillas, cover with homemade syrup, and bake until bubbling. Serve with your favorite toppings for the ultimate cozy dessert.

Ingredients:

  • Homemade Apple Pie Filling or 1 (21 oz) can apple pie filling
  • 6 (8-inch) flour tortillas
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon (plus more for garnish)
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup water

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Set oven to 350°F. Butter a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Fill Tortillas: Soften tortillas slightly in the microwave. Spoon a heaping 1/4 cup of apple pie filling onto each tortilla, slightly off-center. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
  3. Roll and Arrange: Roll up each tortilla and place seam side down in the baking dish.
  4. Make the Sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
  5. Pour and Rest: Pour sauce over the enchiladas. Let sit for 45 minutes to soak in. Sprinkle extra cinnamon on top if desired.
  6. Bake: Bake for 20 minutes, or until lightly golden and bubbly.
  7. Serve: Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Drizzle with caramel sauce for extra indulgence.

What to Serve with Apple Pie Enchiladas

Top Tips for Best Results

  • Let Rest Before Baking: This helps the syrup soak into the tortillas.

  • Use Homemade Filling: For maximum flavor and texture control.

Storing and Reheating Tips

  • Storage: Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheating: Microwave or warm in the oven at 300°F until heated through.
  • Freezing: Not recommended, as tortillas may become soggy.
