I used flour tortilla instead of the pie crust for a quick and easy recipe. It’s so easy to make with a few ingredients you already have in your pantry:

  • Apples
  • Lemon
  • Cinnamon sugar
  • Butter
  • Tortillas
  • Egg
  • Oil

APPLE PIE FILLING

Apple Pie Filling is easy to make and you can store it in the freezer. Here is how to make it:

Wash, peel and cut apples into small pieces. Mix them with lemon juice and cinnamon sugar. Then in a saucepan over medium heat, add butter and the apple mixture. Cook until apple pieces turns brown and soft. If you are in a rush, add the water and cornstarch mixture. It will thicken much faster.

First cut flour tortillas using a round cookie cutter. Add 1 tablespoon of the apple mixture to the middle of a tortillas piece, leaving 1/2 inch border, then add egg wash to the border. Place another tortilla piece on top and use a fork to press together edges of each.

In a deep pot, heat the oil to 375°F. Deep fry the pie for about 3 minutes on each side until the crust turns golden brown.  Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.

    I should of made the circles alittle bigger so I could of fit more apple mixture in the middle. But, they were small but Extremely Tasty!
