Cinnamon Sugar Fried Apple Sticks Recipe
Prep time
Cook time
Total time
Use tortillas in a whole new way creating this tasty dessert great with coffee.
Author: Colleen Shibley
Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 16
Ingredients
- 4 Large Flour Tortillas
- ½ Can of Fried Apples (or apple pie filling)
- 1 cup Sugar
- Cinnamon (to taste)
- 4 tbsp or ½ stick Butter (approx)
Instructions
- Turn broiler on to preheat
- Prepare cinnamon & sugar mixture: Pour cup of sugar onto a plate (or in a bag) and sprinkle cinnamon to your liking. Mix sugar and cinnamon together
- Chop or cut up fried apples into tiny squares. I used a chopper to get apples small. If using pie filling try to use more apples and less of the sauce
- Cut tortilla into four squares, each tortilla will make four Cinnamon Sugar Fried Apple Sticks
- Microwave 2 to 4 squares (the microwave softens the tortilla making it easier to roll and helps the butter melt)
- Butter one square and flip it over
- Place a small line of apples on the tortilla square.
- Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon & sugar mixture over the apples and your square (more if you like a heavier cinnamon flavor)
- Roll up apple in tortilla.
- Roll tortilla in cinnamon & sugar mixture (the butter should cause the mixture to stick)
- Place sticks and chips on a greased cooking sheet.
- Broil until just starting to crisp. 3-5 minutes
Notes
Cooking time is approximate and varies based on your oven. Keep an eye on sticks to make sure they are not burning. Servings is 16 sticks

Great recipe. I tried it after seeing last week on the mission site. I tried 2 versions, 1 for me and 1 for my diabetic patients. For the diabetic version, I used splenda and did one version with the regular tortillas and one with the whole wheat tortillas. Truthfully we did not care fas much for the ones with the whole wheat tortilla. I also through in some chopped walnuts. Thanks for the recipe!
And yep, I voted for the recipe:)

do you think I can just use boiled apples? My store doesn’t have can fried apples and I keep forgetting to look for apple filling.
Colleen says
THe only problem with boiled apples is apple filing is filled with syrup and other additives. You could try them and see what you think, but what I love about this is the gooey filling in the middle that you get with fried apples or apple filling.
Richard Dorr says
Can you also use Cherry and or Peach pie filling instead of apple?
Colleen says
I would say it is worth a try!
Priscilla says
Yum! These looks like a delicious, quick treat!
valmg @ From Val's Kitchen says

A fascinating discussion is definitely worth comment. I do think that you
ought to write more about this subject, it might not be
a taboo subject but typically people do not discuss such subjects.
To the next! Kind regards!!
