Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 can 21 oz apple pie filling
  • 6 medium flour tortillas
  • 4 tbsp butter melted
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 1 pinch ground cinnamon

Method
 

  1. Warm tortillas in the microwave for 10 seconds, then lay them flat on a clean surface.
  2. Stir Greek yogurt, vanilla bean paste, and a pinch of cinnamon in a small bowl, then spread a thin layer on each tortilla.
  3. Spoon 2 tbsp apple pie filling down the center of each tortilla, leaving 1 inch clear at both ends.
  4. Roll tortillas up tightly into taquitos; dab the seam with a little water and press to seal if needed.
  5. Brush the outside of each taquito generously with melted butter.
  6. Mix granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a shallow dish, then roll each buttered taquito in the mixture to coat; roll twice for a thicker coating.
  7. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F, then place taquitos seam side down in a single layer with space between them.
  8. Air fry for 12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crisp and golden.
  9. Cool for 3 minutes before serving.

Notes

- Keep filling to 2 tbsp per tortilla to prevent leaking and burning in the basket.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days; cool completely before storing.
- Freeze up to 2 months; freeze on a baking sheet first, then transfer to a freezer bag.
- Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3 minutes, adding 2 minutes if frozen.
