Air Fryer Apple Pie Taquitos
Description
Crispy air fryer apple pie taquitos are an easy 20-minute dessert made with flour tortillas, apple pie filling, and a sweet cinnamon-sugar coating. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or caramel.
Ingredients
- 8 flour tortillas, small
- 21 ounces apple pie filling, or one can
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface.
- If your apple pie filling has large pieces, roughly chop it. Spoon about 3 tablespoons of filling down the center of each tortilla.
- Roll the tortilla up snugly around the filling. Secure with a toothpick if needed (check your air fryer manual first).
- Brush each rolled tortilla generously with melted butter.
- In a small bowl, stir together the sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over the buttered tortillas.
- Place the taquitos in the air fryer basket seam-side down, leaving space between each one.
- Air fry at 320°F (160°C) for 5 to 8 minutes, until golden and crisp. Watch closely near the end so they don't burn.
- Plate, serve warm, and enjoy with vanilla ice cream or a caramel drizzle.

Notes
- Don't overfill or overcrowd — both lead to soggy taquitos. Cook in batches if your basket is small.
- Reheat leftovers in the air fryer at 400°F for 2–3 minutes to restore the crunch.
- Swap the filling for cherry, peach, or blueberry to change it up.
