Ingredients

Scale

Apple Pie Dip

  • 5 medium apples, peeled, cored, and chopped into ¼ inch cubes
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

Cinnamon Sugar Tortillas

  • 8 flour tortillas (6-inch)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • Non-stick cooking spray

Instructions

  1. Prepare Apple Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cubed apples, brown sugar, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice. Mix well to coat the apples evenly with the sugar and spices.
  2. Cook Apples: Heat a large skillet or saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour the apple mixture along with 1 cup of water into the pan. Bring it to a boil, then cover with a lid and reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer gently for about 10 minutes until the apples become very tender, adjusting the time depending on apple variety.
  3. Thicken the Dip: Remove half a cup of the hot cooking liquid from the pan and whisk in the cornstarch until smooth. Pour this cornstarch mixture back into the pan with the apples, stirring to combine.
  4. Final Cooking: Continue cooking the apple mixture over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the dip thickens to a creamy consistency. Then remove from heat. The dip can be served warm or chilled according to your preference.
  5. Prepare Oven and Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a baking sheet by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray or lining it with parchment paper.
  6. Mix Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the tortilla coating.
  7. Coat Tortillas: Spray both sides of each flour tortilla lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle both sides generously with the cinnamon sugar mixture to ensure an even coating.
  8. Cut Tortillas into Wedges: Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut each tortilla into 8 equal wedges.
  9. Bake Tortilla Chips: Arrange the tortilla wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake at 350°F for 9-12 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and become crisp. Bake in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
  10. Cool and Serve: Remove the chips from the oven and transfer them to wire cooling racks to cool completely. Serve the crispy cinnamon tortilla chips alongside the apple pie dip at room temperature.

Notes

  • The apple pie dip can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator. Warm slightly before serving for the best flavor.
  • If preferred, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas to accommodate dietary restrictions.
  • The cinnamon sugar tortilla chips keep well in an airtight container for up to 3 days but are best enjoyed fresh for maximum crispiness.
  • Using fresh lemon juice helps to balance the sweetness and prevent the apples from browning.
  • Adjust the sugar level in the dip according to your preferred sweetness.
