Yield 4-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large Granny Smith apples
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tbs lemon juice
1/3 cup lightly packed brown sugar
1/4 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of ground cloves
1 tbs cornstarch
2 tbs cold water
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
4 (7-8") tortillas
Glaze:
1 tbs melted butter
sugar

Steps:

  • 1) Peel, core, and quarter the apples. Cut quarters crosswise into thin slices and combine with orange and lemon juices in a medium saucepan. With pan partially covered, bring to a boil. Reduce heat slightly and cook at a gentle boil 5 minutes. 2) Stir in brown sugar, cinnamon, and cloves and continue cooking uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes. 3) Blend cornstarch and water in small bowl and pour into apple mixture. Bring mixture back to a boil, stirring continuously. Let filling cook for 1 minute then remove from heat and stir in nuts. Transfer to a bowl to cool. 4) Heat oven to 375. Line a medium sized baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly greased foil. 5) Working with 1 tortilla at a time, spoon a quarter of the apple filling down the center, leaving a generous 1" border at each end. Fold the ends over the filling, then fold over one of the sides to enclose the filling. Moisten the other edge of the tortilla with a pastry brush dipped in water, then continue to fold the tortilla so it rests on the moistened section. Place on baking sheet, seam down. 6) Brush each tortilla generously with melted butter, then sprinke with sugar. Bake 20-25 minutes until a rich golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for at least 20 minutes before serving. Cut diagonally in halves to serve.
