01 - 6 small flour tortillas, about 4.5 inches in diameter
02 - 1/3 cup salted butter, melted
03 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
04 - 1 cup finely crushed vanilla wafer cookies
05 - 20 ounces canned apple pie filling, or equivalent prepared sautéed apples
06 - 1/4 cup heavy cream
07 - Whipped cream, for topping
08 - Caramel sauce, for drizzling
09 - Optional: pinch of ground nutmeg
# How to Make It:
01 - Heat oven to 375°F. Brush tortillas with melted butter and press into the combined cookie crumbs and cinnamon.
02 - Shape over an inverted oven-safe muffin tin set on a rimmed tray. Bake about eight to ten minutes until crisp, then cool in shape. Do not let butter drip directly onto the oven floor.
03 - Warm apple filling with cream in a saucepan, stirring until hot and slightly thickened. Add optional nutmeg.
04 - Spoon a modest amount into each shell and add whipped cream and caramel at serving. Serve excess filling separately.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 - It catches butter and crumbs that would otherwise fall from the shaped shells.
02 - Warm wet filling softens the shell quickly and can crack it when lifted.
