Why You’ll Love This Apple Pie Tortilla Wraps Recipe

You’re going to love how this recipe takes just minutes to prep and uses ingredients you likely already have in your pantry. It’s a budget-friendly and time-saving dessert that doesn’t skimp on flavor. Whether served hot out of the skillet or chilled from the fridge, these wraps are irresistibly good. Plus, they’re super adaptable. Add some pecans for crunch or a dollop of whipped cream for extra flair.

What Kind of Tortillas Should I Use?

Flour tortillas are the best option here. They toast up beautifully while staying pliable enough to hold that luscious apple filling. You can use medium or large tortillas depending on how hearty you want each wrap to be. Avoid corn tortillas for this recipe; they crack too easily and don’t provide the tender bite that flour tortillas do.

Ingredients for the Apple Pie Tortilla Wraps with Brown Sugar Butter

This dessert keeps things simple yet decadent. Each ingredient has a role in building rich flavor and comforting texture.

Flour Tortillas – These form the crispy golden base for your wraps, toasting up to a delightful crunch while staying soft enough to fold.

Apples – Granny Smith or Honeycrisp are ideal, bringing just the right balance of tartness and sweetness to offset the brown sugar.

Brown Sugar – Adds a warm caramel flavor that melts into the butter and coats the apples perfectly.

Butter – The base of the brown sugar sauce. It gives the wraps that irresistible richness.

Cinnamon – For that essential apple pie spice kick.

Vanilla Extract – Deepens the flavor of the filling and makes everything smell heavenly.

Salt – Just a pinch to balance the sweetness and bring out all the warm flavors.

How To Make the Apple Pie Tortilla Wraps with Brown Sugar Butter

Step 1: Prepare the Apple Filling

Peel, core, and chop your apples into small cubes. In a skillet over medium heat, melt a tablespoon of butter and cook the apples until they soften slightly. Sprinkle in brown sugar, cinnamon, and a splash of vanilla extract. Let it simmer for 5-6 minutes until the mixture is thick and jammy.

Step 2: Assemble the Wraps

Lay out the tortillas and spoon a generous line of apple filling down the center of each. Fold the sides over and roll them up tightly like burritos.

Step 3: Brown Sugar Butter Coating

In the same skillet, melt more butter and stir in brown sugar. Let it bubble for a minute. Place the wraps seam side down in the skillet, cooking until each side is golden and crisp. Brush some extra brown sugar butter over the top.

Step 4: Serve Warm

Serve immediately while they’re still warm and crispy. Optionally, drizzle with caramel sauce or add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for full dessert effect.

How to Serve and Store Apple Pie Tortilla Wraps

These tortilla wraps are best served hot off the skillet with a soft center and crisp edges. If you’re prepping ahead, you can store the cooked wraps in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a skillet or toaster oven to bring back the crunch. This recipe serves 4 people generously, or 6 if you’re sharing smaller portions.
