Ingredients for Apple Enchiladas With Cinnamon Vanilla Sauce

  • 4 medium apples, peeled and diced
  • Lemon
  • Butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon (plus 1/2 tsp for the sauce)
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • Egg Roll Wraps
  • Granulated Sugar
  • Ground Cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp sugar (for the sauce)
  • Flour
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • Cold Water
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

How to Make Apple Enchiladas With Cinnamon Vanilla Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the peeled and diced apples (4 medium), brown sugar (1/4 cup), cinnamon (1 tsp), nutmeg (1/4 tsp), and allspice (1/4 tsp).
  3. Warm tortillas (6-8, 6 inch) for 15-20 seconds in the microwave or a dry skillet to make them pliable.
  4. Spoon apple mixture into each tortilla and roll tightly. Place seam-down in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  5. In a small saucepan, whisk together the milk (1 cup), cornstarch (1 tbsp), vanilla extract (1 tsp) and sugar (2 tbsp).
  6. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and smooth (about 5 minutes). Stir in cinnamon (1/2 tsp).
  7. Pour the cinnamon vanilla sauce over the enchiladas.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and extra cinnamon if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
