Simple desserts are often overlooked, especially when the Holidays roll around. These apple pie taquitos have all the makings of a great apple pie in fun, crispy cinnamon & sugar coated taquito form.

Ingredients
- 1 20 oz can apple pie filling
- 12 medium soft tortillas
- ¼ cup butter melted
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- caramel syrup optional
Instructions
- Combine the cinnamon and sugar on a plate.
- Empty the can of pie filling onto a cutting board and chop up the apples into bite-sized pieces.
- Lay a tortilla flat and top with about 3 tablespoons of the apple pie filling. Tightly roll up the tortilla.
- Brush the outsides of the taquito with butter, then roll it in the sugar/cinnamon mixture to coat the outside.
- Place the taquito in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and apple pie filling.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until the taquitos start to get golden on top. Drizzle with caramel syrup before serving.
Notes
- Make sure you're using flour tortillas, NOT corn tortillas. Only flour tortillas will work with this dessert-style recipe.
- You can substitute homemade apple pie filling for the canned version, if desired.
- The taquitos are great when made and served as instructed, but we love topping the warm taquitos with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a really tasty treat.
