Ingredients
Taco Shells
- 6 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup oil for frying
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
Filling
- 21 ounces apple pie filling 1 can, chopped coarsely
OR
- 3 large apples
- 1 ½ tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- ½ cup water divided
Other
- frozen whipped topping
- Caramel sauce store bought or homemade
Instructions
Taco Shells
- Using a 3.5" circle cutter, cut out circles from your tortillas. You should get about 5 from each tortilla. (You can use any size cutter but this was the perfect size for a 2-3 bite taco).
- Combine sugar & cinnamon in a bowl and set aside. Heat about 1 ½" of oil in a pan on the stove over medium heat. Use a little scrap of tortilla to put in the oil and make sure it's good & bubbly.
- Using tongs, place one circle in the oil for about 5 seconds. Flip it over and fold it in half holding it folded for about 5 seconds or until browned. Flip over and fry the other side until crispy. Immediately remove from the oil giving it a little shake and place into the cinnamon sugar.
- Set on a pan to cool. You can leave these at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Filling
- Peel and dice apples. Toss with lemon juice.
- Over medium heat stir together butter, chopped apples, cinnamon and brown sugar. Add about ¼ cup water and let cook on medium heat for about 4 minutes. Stir 1 teaspoon cornstarch into remaining water and add to pan. Continue cooking until most of the liquid is gone and apples are soft.
Assembly
- (see note below for serving suggestions) Fill each taco shell with about 2 tablespoons of pie filling (will vary based on shell size) and top with frozen whipped topping and a drizzle of caramel sauce if desired.

Notes
- To serve:Place a mini muffin tin upside down (if desired you can line the tin with a cloth napkin to look pretty as I did in the photos above). Fill each taco with warm pie filling and top with frozen whipped topping. Lightly drizzle with caramel sauce.
