Mexican Apple Tortillas image

Tortillas make wonderful "packages" for fruits, as well as beans. Mexican cooks often use combinations of fruits and cheese rolled up with hot fruit. This apple filling, laced with the flavors of lime and apricot is really delectable.

36 inches flour tortillas
2 large golden delicious apples, unpeeled, coarsely shredded
1/4 cup raisins

2 teaspoons lime juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons fruit-only apricot jam

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Stack tortillas and wrap them tightly in alumimum foil. Heat in oven for 10 minutes.
  • While tortillas are heating, combine apples, raisins, orange juice, lime juice, and cinnamon in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, 5 to 7 minutes until apples are tender.
