Apple Pie Enchiladas are a fun twist on traditional apple pie, blending sweet, spiced apple filling with soft flour tortillas, then baking them to golden perfection in a caramel sauce. This quick and easy dessert is perfect for any occasion and tastes amazing served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
For the Enchiladas: 2 (21 oz) cans apple pie filling (or about 4 cups homemade apple pie filling) 8 (8-inch) flour tortillas 1 tsp ground cinnamon For the Sauce: 1/2 cup unsalted butter 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed 1/2 cup water 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Assemble the enchiladas: Spoon about 1/2 cup of apple pie filling onto the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon. Roll up the tortilla tightly, folding in the sides to seal, and place seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with all tortillas. Prepare the sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in granulated sugar, brown sugar, and water. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, then reduce the heat and simmer for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Pour the sauce: Pour the warm sauce evenly over the enchiladas in the baking dish, ensuring they’re coated. Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the enchiladas are golden. Serve: Let the enchiladas cool for 5-10 minutes. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
For a twist, add a handful of chopped nuts, like pecans or walnuts, to the apple pie filling before assembling the enchiladas. If you like your enchiladas extra saucy, double the sauce recipe. You can use homemade apple pie filling for a fresher taste.
