Ingredients
- 20 ounce apple pie filling ((1 can))
- 12 medium soft flour tortillas
- ¼ cup butter (unsalted, melted)
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
Turn the oven on to 350°F. Spread a small amount of the melted butter onto a 9 x 13 baking dish.
Stir the cinnamon and sugar together in a shallow plate. Transfer the contents of the pie filling can onto a chopping board, then use a knife to cut the apples into smaller pieces.
Spoon a few tablespoons of the apple pie filling onto a flattened tortilla. Roll up the tortilla tightly.
After rubbing the taquito with butter, roll it in the mixture of sugar and cinnamon. Taquito should be put in the ready baking dish. Continue with the leftover tortillas and filling for the apple pie. There ought to be plenty filling for twelve tortillas.
Place the baking dish in the oven and bake until the tacos begin to turn brown on top, about 15 minutes.
If desired, top with caramel sauce and serve.
Notes
Tortillas: Opt for soft, medium-sized flour tortillas for easy rolling and a perfect fit in your baking dish.
Examine your oven. Since every oven is different, begin checking your tacos at the 12-minute mark to make sure they don’t overbrown.
Storage Advice: Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to three days in an airtight container. To keep the crispy texture, reheat in the oven.
Filling Changes: For extra texture and flavour, feel free to stir in a handful of raisins or finely chopped nuts to the apple pie filling.

Expert Tips
Utilise Room Temperature Tortillas: Before assembling, make sure your tortillas are at room temperature. When you roll them, they become more malleable and are less likely to tear.
Liberally Brush with Melted Butter: Make sure to generously brush the taquitos with melted butter prior to baking. It aids in their oven-baked extra crispy and golden colour.
Serve Right Away: Serve the tacos as soon as they come out of the oven while they’re still perfectly crispy for the best texture. They may soften if left to sit for too long.
Pour in a Little Lemon Juice: The slight sharpness of the lemon juice nicely counteracts the sweetness of the apple pie filling.
Personalise the Toppings: To balance the flavours of the apple and cinnamon, experiment with other toppings like whipped cream, ice cream, or sauces like chocolate or raspberry.
