Apple Pie Roll-Ups (Print View)

Warm tortillas filled with spiced apples, baked to golden crispness for a speedy sweet treat.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Apple Filling

01 - 2 medium apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and diced
02 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
04 - ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
05 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

→ Roll-Ups

06 - 6 medium flour tortillas
07 - 2 tablespoons melted butter

→ Cinnamon Sugar Coating

08 - ¼ cup granulated sugar
09 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

# Directions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until apples soften and the mixture becomes syrupy. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
03 - Place tortillas flat and evenly spoon the cooled apple filling along one edge of each tortilla.
04 - Roll tortillas tightly around the filling and position them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
05 - Brush the tops of each roll-up with melted butter. Combine granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle generously over the roll-ups.
06 - Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until roll-ups are golden brown and crisp.
07 - Allow roll-ups to cool slightly before serving warm. Optional accompaniments include vanilla ice cream or caramel sauce.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They come together in under thirty minutes with ingredients you probably have right now
  • The tortilla gets wonderfully crisp while staying tender inside in a way regular pie crust never achieves
02 -
  • Hot apple filling can make the tortillas soggy so let it cool slightly before rolling
  • Roll them tight or the filling will escape during baking and you will have a mess on your hands
03 -
  • Mix the cinnamon sugar coating in a wider bowl so you can easily dip the brushed roll-ups instead of sprinkling
  • Place the rolled tortillas seam side down and press gently to help them stay closed during baking
