Ingredients:
- 1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 6 (8 inch) flour tortillas
Directions:
- Spoon about one heaping quarter cup of pie filling evenly down the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with cinnamon and roll up, tucking in edges; and place seam side down in prepared dish.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and water. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes, then remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla.
