# Ingredients You'll Need:
→ Filling
01 -
4 cups (approximately 480 g) peeled and diced apples
02 -
375 ml water
03 -
150 g granulated sugar
04 -
110 g brown sugar, packed
05 -
2 teaspoons apple pie spice blend
06 -
3 tablespoons cornstarch
→ Assembly
07 -
6 medium soft flour tortillas
08 -
3 tablespoons cinnamon sugar
→ Topping
09 -
120 ml caramel sauce
10 -
4 tablespoons (about 56 g) unsalted butter, melted
# How to Make It:
01 -
Set oven to 190°C to ensure even baking throughout.
02 -
Combine apples, water, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and apple pie spice in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat until apples soften and mixture starts to simmer, approximately 10 minutes.
03 -
Add cornstarch to the saucepan and continue cooking for 2–5 minutes, stirring, until the filling thickens and achieves a smooth consistency. Remove from heat and set aside.
04 -
Spoon about 80 ml of apple filling onto each tortilla, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, and roll tightly, making sure to tuck the edges. Arrange rolled tortillas seam side down in a 33 x 23 cm baking dish.
05 -
In a small bowl, blend caramel sauce with melted butter. Stir vigorously until homogeneous.
06 -
Evenly pour caramel-butter mixture over assembled enchiladas and allow to rest for 15 minutes at room temperature.
07 -
Place baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the tortillas are lightly golden and the sauce is bubbling.
08 -
Cool slightly before serving. Portion with a spatula and accompany with vanilla ice cream if desired.
# Extra Information:
01 -
For enhanced flavor, substitute a mix of tart and sweet apples. Allowing the caramel sauce to soak for 15 minutes ensures optimal absorption.
