Caramel Apple Taquitos

 Caramel Apple Taquitos (found on Pinterest)



1 can (20 oz) apple pie filling
Caramel sauce (ice cream topping)
2 Tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
melted butter
tortillas (I used the smallest ones)

Preheat oven to 350.  Butter 9 x 13 pan.  (I got a lot more out of the recipe than 12 so I also had to use an 8 x 8 pan)
Pour pie filling into large bowl.  Chop the apple pieces into small bits.  I used a pastry blender but you can just use a knife.
Spread about 1/2 tsp caramel sauce (more if you wish) in a stripe across the bottom 1/3 of a tortilla.  Spoon some of  the apple pie filling over the sauce.  Roll up the tortilla and place seam side down in the prepared pan.   Repeat until you have used all the pie filling.
Brush the taquitos with the melted butter.
In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.  Sprinkle on the taquitos.
Bake 15 minutes or until the filling is bubbly.
Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
