Instructions
Make the Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Shells:
Mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl and set aside.
Using a 3.5-4 inch circle cutter, cut circles from the tortillas.
Heat 1 inch of oil in a pan over medium heat.
Using tongs, place tortilla circles in the oil and fry for about 10-15 seconds, then flip, fold in half, and fry until golden brown.
Remove from oil and let drain for a few seconds, then immediately coat in the cinnamon sugar mixture, ensuring some mixture gets inside the shells.
Place on an upside-down muffin tin to shape. Repeat with remaining tortilla circles.
Make the Homemade Apple Pie Filling:
In a medium dish, combine water, cornstarch, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally.
Add diced apples and vanilla extract, then cook for 10 minutes or until apples soften.
Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
