Ingredients (Serves 6):

  • 6 medium flour tortillas (use low-carb or whole wheat for a lighter option)
  • 4 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thin
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar (or sugar substitute for lower calories)
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg (optional)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup apple pie filling (optional, for added sweetness and texture)
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce (optional for topping)

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.

Step 2: Cook the Apple Filling

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, combine:
    • Sliced apples
    • Granulated sugar
    • Brown sugar
    • Cinnamon
    • Nutmeg (if using)
    • Vanilla extract
  2. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and the mixture is syrupy.

Step 3: Assemble the Enchiladas

  1. Lay out a tortilla and spoon about 2–3 tablespoons of the apple filling into the center.
  2. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and place it seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
  3. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Step 4: Add Syrup and Bake

  1. Brush the tops of the enchiladas with melted butter.
  2. Sprinkle lightly with additional cinnamon and sugar, if desired.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden and crisp.

Step 5: Serve

  1. Drizzle the enchiladas with caramel sauce for an extra sweet finish.
  2. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use Store-Bought Apple Pie Filling: Save time by replacing fresh apples with 1 1/2 cups of canned apple pie filling.
  • Make It Vegan: Swap butter for coconut oil and use vegan tortillas.
  • Spice It Up: Add a pinch of cloves or cardamom to the filling for more depth of flavor.
