These Easy Air Fryer Apple Pie Taquitos are a delightful and quick dessert made by rolling apple pie filling inside flour tortillas, coating them with cinnamon sugar, and air frying until golden and crispy. Perfect for a warm, crispy treat in minutes without the mess of deep frying.

Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 1 can (21 oz) apple pie filling

Taquito Wraps

  • 6 medium flour tortillas

Toppings and Coating

  • 4 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon powder

Instructions

  1. Prepare Tortillas: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface to make rolling easier.
  2. Add Filling and Roll: Spoon about 2 tablespoons of apple pie filling in a line across the center of each tortilla. Roll each tortilla up tightly to form taquitos, ensuring the filling is enclosed.
  3. Butter Taquitos: Using a pastry brush, generously brush the outside of each rolled taquito with melted butter, which helps the cinnamon sugar stick and adds to crispiness.
  4. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: In a shallow dish, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon powder until combined. Roll each buttered taquito in the cinnamon sugar mixture, coating fully and evenly. Roll twice for extra flavor and crust.
  5. Arrange in Air Fryer: Place the coated taquitos seam side down in the air fryer basket, making sure they don’t overlap for even cooking.
  6. Air Fry: Cook at 350°F (175°C) for 9-11 minutes until the taquitos start to turn golden and crispy.
  7. Flip and Finish Cooking: Use tongs to flip each taquito over and air fry for an additional 3-4 minutes to reach desired crispness.
  8. Cool and Serve: Let the taquitos cool slightly before serving as they will be very hot inside.

Notes

  • Make sure the taquitos are rolled tightly to prevent filling from leaking during air frying.
  • Use a pastry brush to evenly coat with melted butter for best cinnamon sugar adhesion.
  • Air fryer temperatures and times may vary; check taquitos towards the end of cooking to avoid burning.
  • Allow to cool briefly to avoid burning your mouth from hot apple filling.
  • These taquitos are best enjoyed fresh and warm for maximum crispiness.
