Time 1h

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 large granny smith apples
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 pinch ground cloves
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or 1/2 cup pecans
4 flour tortillas (7- to 8-inch)
1 tablespoon melted butter
sugar

Steps:

Peel, core, and quarter the apples. Then cut the quarters crosswise into thin slices and combine them with the orange and lemon juices in a medium-size saucepan. With the pan partially covered, bring the mixture to a boil. Then reduce the heat slightly and cook the fruit at a gentle boil for 5 minutes.
Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and cloves and continue cooking the filling uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes.
Blend the cornstarch and water in a small bowl and pour it into the apple mixture. Bring the mixture back to a boil, stirring continuously. Let the filling cook for 1 minute and then remove it from the heat and stir in the nuts. Transfer the mixture to a bowl to cool.
Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a medium-size baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly greased aluminum foil.
Working with 1 tortilla at a time, spoon a quarter of the apple filling down the center, leaving a generous 1-inch border at each end. Fold the ends over the filling, then fold over one of the sides to enclose the filling. Moisten the other edge of the tortilla with a pastry brush dipped in water, then continue to fold the tortilla so it rests on the moistened section. Place it on the baking sheet, seam down. Repeat for the other tortillas.
Brush each tortilla generously with melted butter, then sprinkle on sugar. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tortillas turn a rich golden brown. Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and let the burritos cool for at least 20 minutes before serving. Cut each one diagonally into halves to serve.

Tips:

For a crispy burrito, use a large skillet over medium-high heat. If the heat is too low, the burrito will not crisp up properly.
Be careful not to overfill the burrito, or it will be difficult to fold and seal. Aim for about 1/2 cup of filling per burrito.
If you are using a tortilla that is not fresh, you may need to warm it up before filling it. This will make it more pliable and less likely to crack.
To seal the burrito, fold the bottom edge up over the filling, then fold in the sides. Finally, roll the burrito up tightly, starting from the bottom.
If you are planning on freezing the burritos, make sure to wrap them tightly in plastic wrap before placing them in the freezer.

Conclusion:

Apple cinnamon burritos are a delicious and unique treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover apples. With a crispy tortilla, warm apple cinnamon filling, and a drizzle of maple syrup, these burritos are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
