- 1/4 cup granulated sugar

- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar mixed with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for coating)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preparing the Apple Filling
- In a mixing bowl, toss diced apples with lemon juice to prevent browning.
- Add granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ground cloves to the bowl, and toss until the apples are evenly coated.
2. Cooking the Apple Filling
- In a skillet, melt unsalted butter over medium heat.
- Add the apple mixture to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelized.
- Remove from heat and let the apple filling cool slightly.
3. Assembling the Taquitos
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Spoon a portion of the apple filling onto each flour tortilla and roll them up tightly, securing them with toothpicks if needed.
4. Air Frying the Taquitos
- Brush each taquito with melted butter on all sides.
- Place the taquitos in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they are not touching.
- Air fry for 8-10 minutes, or until the taquitos are golden brown and crispy.
5. Coating the Taquitos
- Immediately after removing the taquitos from the air fryer, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until evenly coated.
6. Serving Up Sweetness
- Serve the Air Fryer Apple Pie Taquitos warm, garnished with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce, if desired.
