Yummy Fruit Enchiladas

Years ago Mr. and I were eating with some friends and she made the most amazing dessert. As we do around here, I asked for the recipe and she graciously gave it to me.  Fast forward a few years to yesterday and I happened upon a can of pie filling (used in pie irons for campfire pies while camping) in our pantry. I exclaimed "I know what we'll have for dessert!" That comment ALWAYS gets my family excited and this time was no different. I'm happy to say, it was a success and I thought I'd share it here for you.

Fruit Enchiladas

Ingredients:
1 can pie filling (apple, blueberry or cherry...any will work)
6-12 (8-inch) flour tortillas
cinnamon (I just use my cinnamon & sugar shaker)
1/3C butter or margarine
1/2C sugar
1/2C brown sugar (packed)
1/2C water

Directions:
Spoon fruit filling evenly down the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with cinnamon (whatever you think looks good). Roll up and place seam side dowm in a lightly greased baking dish (8x8 will work for 6-8, 9x13 if you make more). Bring butter, sugars and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. TReduce heat and simmer, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes. Pour over enchiladas. Sprinkle with more cinnamon if you like. Bake (I cover the pan with foil) at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Is awesome with ice cream!

Now, for those of you who like to go really homemade, I see no reason you couldn't make your own tortillas or pie filling!

Sadly, I have no picture of it because it was gone almost as soon as it was served!
