Equipment

  • Oven
  • Small Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet

Ingredients

  • 4 Tortillas Whole grain, 8-inch
  • 2 Apples Medium
  • ¼ tsp Cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp Brown Sugar Packed
  • ⅛ tsp Nutmeg
  • Sugar Optional

Instructions

  • Wash hands with soap and water.
  • Warm tortillas in microwave or oven to make them easier to handle.
  • Peel and chop fruit into pieces.
  • Place 1/4 of the fruit on half of each tortilla.
  • In a small bowl, stir together brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sprinkle over fruit.
  • Roll up the tortillas, starting at the end with the fruit.
  • Place on an greased baking sheet and make small slashes to allow steam to escape. Brush with milk and sprinkle with additional sugar, if desired.
  • Back at 350 °F in oven for 8 to 12 minutes or until lightly brown.
  • Serve warm or cool.

Notes

  • This easy snack helps work fruit into a daily diet. Tortillas, with a variety of toppings, make great snack builders.
  • Safety Tip: Allow pie to cool slightly before tasting -- the steam and sugar can burn.
