This sweet treat is very simple and quick to make with ingredients you may already have in your pantry. They can be baked on a boat with a small oven or made ahead of time, stored and eaten on the boat straight from your storage container, but a little warm up is best!

Apple Pie Taquitos

Prep Time: 15 mins

Cook Time: 15-20 mins

Total Time: 30-35 mins

Serves: 12

Ingredients

• 20 oz can apple pie filling
• 12 medium soft flour tortillas (the thin ones work best)
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• Caramel sauce (optional) (We used a Caramel Chocolate Sauce)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Brush a 9x13 baking dish with some of the melted butter.
2. In a shallow plate mix together the sugar and cinnamon.
3. Empty the can of pie filling onto a cutting board and chop the apples into smaller pieces with a knife.
4. Lay a tortilla flat and top with a couple tablespoons of the apple pie filling. Tightly roll up the tortilla. Brush the taquito with butter the roll it through the sugar/cinnamon mixture. Place the taquito in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and apple pie filling. You should have enough filling for the 12 tortillas.
5. Bake for about 15 minutes or until the taquitos start to get golden on top.
6. Serve with caramel sauce if preferred.
