Apple flutes

Apple Flautas will always remind me of my childhood. If you grew up in the 90s as I did, you probably remember the man of Schwann who makes his rounds. I can still imagine my mother by pulling a box of flautas of icy apples from her freezer truck full of frozen goodies, and I knew that the dessert was about to get it seriously improved. Warm, crisp and cinnamon sugar coated, it really did not improve much. These days, I do my own version using the air fryer, which is a little lighter compared to the frying, but I promise that they are just as delicious as you remember!
Fryer Apple Air Homemade Air
When testing this recipe for Apple Flautas, I was honestly surprised by the way they are easy and quick. And not only are they, SO Well, they are also incredibly cheap. All you need is a few apples and a few pantry staples!
As a rule, flautas are a salted Mexican dish stuffed with meat, cheese or beans, then fried until they are crisp. This recipe takes the same idea but fills the tortillas with hot fries cinnamon apples instead. I also heard people call the apple flautas apple tarts, and honestly, this is the perfect description. They are like pies wrapped in the size of a bite with a crunchy tortillary … The perfect and comfortable dessert! 😋
Success advice and successful suggestions
- You can use any fried sizeBut you may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer basket.
- Do not fill the tortillas where they do not take place and will not remain closed!
- Exchange the garnish! The mixture of apples in this recipe is like a quick apple pie garnish (and it’s incredibly delicious!), But you can try other fruit fillings if you wish. Try the cherry sauce, the blueberry pie garnish, fishing sauce or whatever the fruit you want. I would avoid something too aqueous, however, because it will spread tortillas and in your air fryer. Simmer home sauces longer to thicken them.
- Do you want to try the oven? I do these apple flautas in the air fryer because it is so easy and practical. But I’m sure they will be just as delicious in the oven! Follow the instructions below and cook until golden and crisp.

Notes
** Dice apple tip:: Cut the apples into quarters to easily remove the nucleus, then cut each quarter into sticks and dice. This Even gives you pieces and reduces waste.
***Sweet finish: Although these apple flautas are delicious by themselves, launch them in cinnamon-sucks just after the air frying adds a nostalgic crunch of the churro type. They are also incredible with a net of our Easy caramel sauce.

How to take apple photos step by step

Gather all your ingredients.

Prepare the apples: Start by peel and disdain 2 Granny Smith apples.

I like to cut my apples into quarters to remove the nucleus. Then I slice the districts in sticks and design small apples.

Fill: Add the diced apples, 3 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of lemon juice and a pinch of salt in a medium pan over medium heat. Stir from time to time for 5 to 6 minutes until the apples start to soften.

Thicken the garnish: Mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl to make a suspension. Pour the suspension of the cornstarch in the apple mixture and cook for 1-2 minutes until thickened and shiny.

Remove the pan from the heat to allow the garnish to cool slightly.

Assemble the flautas apples: Pour an apple filling line by filling directly in the center of each small flour tortilla. Do not fill them! Roll the tight tortillas and place them on the seam down. Repeat until the 6 small flour tortillas are filled.

Air Fry: Preheat your air fryer to 400 ° F. Spray the basket of air fryers with a non -stick cooking spray and arrange the flautas in a single layer (couture down). Work here if necessary.

Air fry for 6 to 8 minutes, switched to halfway until they are crisp and golden.

Serve: Let your flautas with homemade apples cool for a few minutes to allow the garnish to thicken slightly. You can serve them as is, but I love rolling them in a cinnamon-succre while they are still hot! Appreciate.

Suggestion service
These easy apple flautas make the perfect dessert, but they are also perfect for breakfast or sweet snack. I love serving them hot and rolled in cinnamon sugar, with a drizzle of caramel sauce, a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. You can even cut them into pieces of the size of a bite and serve them with small bowls of caramel, melted chocolate or Greek yogurt for a funny party treat!
Storage and reheating
As long as you don’t bother you a softer texture, you can store apples left in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 3 days. You can also freeze them after the frying in the air. Let them cool completely, then freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet before transferring to a bag or container in freezer for up to 2 months.
To warm up, I like to use the air fryer (350 ° F for 4 to 5 minutes), but you can also reheat them in the oven at 350 ° F for 10 to 12 minutes or put them in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds (although they are not as clear).
