Ingredients
- 3 cups (750 mL) peeled, diced Ontario Apples, such as Gala or Cortland (about 4)
- 2 tbsp (25 mL) granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp (5 mL) ground cinnamon
- 3/4 cup (175 mL) cold water
- 2 tsp (10 mL) cornstarch
Maple Sauce:
- 1 cup (250 mL) Ontario Maple Syrup
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) 35% Ontario Whipping Cream
- 1/4 cup (50 mL) butter
- 6 small (7-inch/18 cm) flour or whole wheat tortillas
- Ground cinnamon
Instructions
In medium saucepan, combine apples, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon and 1/2 cup
(125 mL) of the water. Bring to boil; reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender. In small bowl, stir cornstarch with 1/4 cup (50 mL) of the water until smooth. Stir into saucepan; bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer until thickened, stirring constantly. Set aside.
Maple Sauce: In small saucepan, combine maple syrup, cream and 2 tbsp (25 mL) of the butter; bring to boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, continue boiling, stirring occasionally for 5 to 7 minutes or until slightly thickened and coats a spoon. Set aside.
Melt remaining 2 tbsp (25 mL) of butter. To assemble taquitos, drizzle 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the maple sauce, down center of a tortilla. Spoon 3 tbsp (45 mL) of the apple filling over sauce. Roll tortilla tightly; place seam side down on parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with butter; sprinkle with cinnamon. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Bake in 375°F (190°C) oven for 15 minutes until golden brown and filling is bubbling at the ends. Serve with remaining maple sauce.
