Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Flour tortillas
- 1.5 cups Apple pie filling
- 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon together. Set aside.
Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of apple pie filling in the center of each tortilla. Spread it into a thin line, leaving room on the edges to fold the tortilla.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards over the filling, then roll tightly from one end to the other to form small burrito-like shapes. Secure the ends with a toothpick to prevent unrolling while frying.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat to about 350°F (175°C).
Carefully place the rolled tortillas seam-side down into the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove Crispitos from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
While the Crispitos are still warm, brush them with melted butter and sprinkle generously with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them on their own or with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
