Ingredients

6 street taco flour tortillas 4.5 inch size

⅓ cup salted butter melted

¾ cup vanilla wafer crumbs finely crushed

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon or apple pie spice

20 ounces apple pie filling 20 ounce can

¼ cup heavy cream

Whipped cream optional garnish

Caramel sauce optional garnish


Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Turn a muffin tin over so the bottom is facing up.


Place the melted butter in a wide, shallow bowl. In a separate wide, shallow bowl whisk together the vanilla wafer crumbs and the ground cinnamon.


Dip each tortilla in the butter first and then in the crumb mixture, making sure to coat both sides. Place each tortilla in between the muffin tins on the upside down muffin pan. The pan will hold the tortillas in a taco shape while they bake.


Bake tacos shells for 10 minutes or until the tortillas begin to take on a golden brown color and become crispy. If they are not baked for long enough they may be slightly chewy instead of crispy. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.


In a medium sized saucepan, empty the can of apple pie filling and heat over medium heat until it begins to bubble, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and stir in the heavy cream.


Remove the tacos from the muffin pan and fill each with the apple pie filling. Top with whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce, optional.
