Ingredients
-
1 (21 oz) can apple pie filling
-
½ tsp ground cinnamon (or to taste)
-
6 (8-inch) flour tortillas
-
½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
-
½ cup granulated sugar
-
½ cup packed brown sugar
-
½ cup water
-
Optional: cinnamon sugar mixture, caramel topping, vanilla ice cream
Instructions
Step 1: In a bowl, mix the apple pie filling with ground cinnamon. Use kitchen shears to chop larger apple chunks if desired.
Step 2: Spoon the filling down the center of each tortilla. Roll tightly and place seam-side down in a buttered 11×7-inch baking dish.
Step 3: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, and water. Stir and bring to a boil.
Step 4: Reduce heat and simmer the sauce for 3–5 minutes.
Step 5: Pour the sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas. Let rest for 45 minutes to soak.
Step 6: Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes or until bubbling.
Step 7: Let cool slightly. Drizzle with caramel and serve with ice cream if desired.

For a crispier texture, broil for an additional 1–2 minutes at the end (watch closely).

Try adding chopped nuts or a cream cheese layer for extra indulgence.
