Time 15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup apple butter
Four 8-inch flour tortillas
1 Granny Smith apple
4 ounces sliced deli turkey
4 slices sharp Cheddar (about 4 ounces), each halved
4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Spread 2 tablespoons apple butter on each tortilla. Grate the apple (with the skin) on the large holes of a box grater taking care not to grate the seeds and core (you should have about 1 cup grated apple). Divide the grated apple between the tortillas, pressing it gently into the apple butter to anchor it.
  • Lay 1 ounce turkey and 2 halved cheese slices over each tortilla. Roll the tortillas up tightly.
  • Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the wraps, seam side down, and cook until lightly toasted and the seam holds together, 1 to 2 minutes. Use tongs to flip and continue cooking until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Transfer the wraps to a cutting board and slice them into 1-inch pinwheels with a serrated knife.
