Ingredients

4 medium apples - peeled, cored, and sliced
½ cup white sugar
½ cup water
2 tablespoons salted butter
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
8 (6 inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

Place apples, sugar, water, butter, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until well blended, then cook, stirring frequently, until apples have softened and mixture has thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
While oil is heating, spoon some apple mixture onto each tortilla and roll up, tucking in the ends, like a burrito. Fry chimichangas in the hot oil until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Serve warm.
